In Memorium: Dr. George Tiller

Dr. George Tiller, one of ten late term abortion providers in the US, was recently assassinated in his church. He became a lightening rod for both the women's rights and anti-abortion movements. His assassin felt that the end justified the means. It is painful and prolonged controversy in American society. I hope this work captures some of that malaise.

Hello David! The assassination of Dr Tiller was indeed shocking and totally unjustifiable. We think that you have treated this difficult subject with great sensitivity. Brilliant artwork!

This work really does capture the sadness and controversy, it is a sad time in our society when violence is used to decide what should be a personal decision.
