Description
What is the "proper" way too paint a missing child? This was inspired by a one inch square black and white image on the back of a "Have you seen me?" mailer.

The work that you do moves me to tears. Your paintings call attention to a topic most people don't think about, whether it's on purpose or because there isn't enough coverage (in my opinion, there isn't enough and simple things are overlooked which keep these children from home...).
As someone who has had to fight her way away from strangers, I know how terrifying it is to think that you'll lose everything and then still worse. And I know the importance of educating people about missing persons cases. I really appreciate every painting you've done. It gives hope that all these children may one day come home safe and sound.
Keep up the great work!
