The following art piece depicts adult themes of S.A.
I once worked at the New Hampshire State Hospital Forensic Unit (where they housed the criminally insane).
There I spent time with quite a few interesting individuals.
One of them was a sex offender who was abused repeatedly at a very young age.
To him, molesting children was the norm; that is what he perpetuated.
Ironically, decades later, while working as a parole officer, I supervised this individual when he was released into the community.
Sure enough, after a short period of time, he tried to molest an 11-year-old in a parking lot, and I had to arrest him and return him to the Forensic Unit (now located inside the state prison).
I also met an ex-police officer.
He was there for murdering his family.
He told me that when he was a child, his stepfather enticed him with an apple to perform fellatio.
They inspired me to do this painting.
