Bruise me, so no one can see

I chose the colors of this painting in hope of symbolizing a bruise. The red in the background is to symbolize a heart. The heavy blue at the top of the painting is to create a sense of having the weight of the world on  a child's shoulders.

        When a child is born, they only know love. If a child is raised in an abusive home, they only know love for the abuser because that is all they have ever known. They thrive on their abusers attention. Unless the child is being physically abused, no one can see the scars; the child doesn't even notice them until its too late.
        This is acrylic and water on canvas.

$500.00 or 650.00 for both the pain and solution
