My daughter is an Asian slave child - part one

Can you imagine…

Being born into a world that buys and sells you like a piece of meat at a market?

Being forced to work long hours that most adults cannot imagine?

Being brain washed into thinking that your self worth is zero?

Can you imagine…

Never feeling the love of family or parents?

Never knowing what it is to be free let alone have the hope or dream of freedom?

Never being allowed the simplest of human rights?

All of the earnings for the sales of items relating to “My daughter is an Asian slave child” parts one and two here on Red Bubble will be donated to the World Children’s Fund.

I would like to thank my daughter Shelby for helping in the creating of this and the up-coming Part Two.

Original is oil on canvas: 24” x 30”

    I love this – always have. The Chinese symbols around the hopeful colors is very touching. Cant wait to meet Shelby.

  • Karl Denton replied

    Thanks Sky… this is one that should be looked at deeper…

    Bright colors yes, but no hope for such children living in such chaos. The second of these will be much more monotone and dire. This is why I decided to donate 100% of the proceeds to the World Children’s Fund.

    Of all my abstracts this and it’s counter part make a statement more then any other. Well except “De-facing America”

    What a visually appealing and morally motivated image. Quite an extraordinary mix of colour and line.
