Hi Andrea. This is a very touching picture you paint. His bruising now healed by her lovely lullaby. Brilliant work! Linda

Ohhh Gosh Andrea! This is such a heart breaking piece. The imagery of the crushed mother holding her baby for the last time! No matter how big they get they remain your babies. Excellent piece but so very sad. God Bless, JB
