Painting of Empathy

A new small acrylic painting. Thinking about human rights & the implications of that subject area, & why things go wrong, a lack of empathy would seem to be at the heart of things. I like to try & summarize abstract, universal concepts in a simple image, often of a head, which would be the most expressive human element, I guess.
