Say not a word

This one I feel has a sadistic tone to it. It could reference anything related to 'keeping secrets'. It can in some ways reflect a child being abused/adult being abused. I guess it just fell into place. I never really meant for this to seem anything more than an ordinary artwork, but I guess when I made the mistake on her mouth and drew the ribbon over it, it turned into something a whole lot more.
Drawn: 2010
