Your Addiction Will Be My Extermination...
Cigarettes contain about 4000 toxic chemicals in them (scary huh!) and every time that you inhale you are bringing them into your body. They reach the baby through the placenta and are also very toxic for your baby.
The main problem is that smoking damages the blood vessels (which is the reason it can cause heart attacks and stokes) and therefore harm the blood vessels of the baby and the placenta. The longer you smoke the more damage it does to the placenta and the more likely it is that your baby will be starving for food and oxygen. This the reason that many babies of smokers are smaller and stressed, and can be born prematurely.
Heavy smoking can cause such damage to the placenta that it becomes detached from your uterine wall and cause the death of your baby (and serious risk for you too). In fact smoking is estimated to be responsible for around 10% of all perinatal infant deaths.
Another major concern is that the baby grows addicted to the nicotine chemical. While the brain is developing in the third trimester studies have shown a link between smoking late in pregnancy and attention deficit disorder (ADD) and other learning disabilities. While the link is not yet conclusive, it is probably wise to avoid risking your baby’s brain to nicotine to be on the safe side.

it has an effect of really capturing the naked eye
Karly Lussier
this is a very powerful statement to make, and very nessesary, my boyfirend sees things like this in the smoking section all the time and it really upsets him, as it would me. great work!

AngelMay
Your message is correct yet I am left wondering about other toxicities. I would have liked to have seen the image include irresponsible fathers who smoke around their pregnant wives and children and in cars and see this image aimed at women only…which bothers me a little…just my thoughts on it colourblind!
colorblind replied
oh i’m sorry Angel
it wasn’t targeting no one
i was just showing what smoking does to a child while it is developing
Edzie
Powerful again! Awesome! Wish people would understand it as clearly as you art shows.
I understand Angelmays (above) concern, and valid as it may be, I saw your work as smoking in general and not targeting women only. In this day and age we are aware smoking is not just “you” but the useless bloke with “you”.
colorblind replied
i’m glad you taken liking to my art its people like you that allow for me to push harder to go deep into the depths of my mind and pull up treasures from deep with in
thanks
and yea that is something i might considering doing to do a piece of such targeting the blokes lol
Devalyn Marshall
This great piece of art says it all! Wonderful work!

ha ha, aww cute!

It should have been
a poster in the 1930’s
colorblind replied
give me the details …..
let me hear more into this
thanks for stopping by
grarbaleg
Today in Australia
when you purchase tabacco
in a pouch
the clever marketing persons
first put on the outside
a graphic image
I am de censitized by images
as you open the packet
a second image
and words
to enduce fear
you pray to want to stop
yet you unfurl the flap
just one more time
and the tabbaco company has one more message for you
“You little beauty” in bold
that is all the affirmation you need to continue rolling
in the 1930’s before we were desensitized an image like this would have worked
your colours reminded me of the suttle tones and ink used during this period
and I liked your comment
validating carrying your sketch book and explaining all your thoughts behind
CONCEPTIONAL artist you are
is that better Abundance
colorblind replied
this is nice ….this is truly rich and power
if you just wrote this out to explain more to me more in depth …this is nice
i can see this a poem and you can if you want use my image to post on the side to add to the power
truly nice…and a bit of knowledge for me tonight
thank you
grarbaleg
It was purely for you colorblind
it was what your image evoked
I appreciate your appreciation of my comment
Satay safe and sane always
