Thomas named it Innocence

That is a spine chilling picture, but child abuse is something that you cant close your eyes, ears or minds to. It happens all around us on a daily basis, but sadly for a lot of children not enough is being done to protect them.
Thomas has truly captivated the innocence and helplessness of one abused child in his picture.Seeing it for the first time today really took my breath away.


Thank you Amber and Thomas


ETA would the 'dog' in the background be Thomas's adaptation of 'The Big Bad Wolf'. just a thought.

You are absolutely right schnuffel,male children are indeed victims as much as girls but I didn't just say it was girls in my post, I said children, meaning both genders. yes, the picture does just depict a girl and yes the painter should have put a boy into the painting as well. that is something maybe you should bring up with Thomas, through Amber. I apologise if you think my post was not including all children, that was not my intention.
