pdxjims, I haven't seen the image, but I can tell you right now that I'd rather see a picture that depicts love and caring, especially for children, than some of the monstrosities I've seen in the galleries that show violence, especially toward women and children. A loving family relationship is the issue here, and the person making the statements was just trying to use it to make a social or political comment. Don't pay any attention to it. Just keep doing your art and ignore the idiots who criticize. Don't give them the attention they're seeking. Oh, and, pdxjims, I'm so sorry to hear about the illness in your relatives, and welcome back home to Portland! :) Melanie
