I am currently painting some projects and the theme that I chose was the Holocaust. More specifically, I was trying to focus on the children aspect.
I was wondering if I could get any opinions on my artwork. Please note that my style is rather simple.

Sorry in advance for the VERY poor images.

Section1

The task that I was given was to design three tea packaging/bag designs. We were given three countries: Japan, China and India. I will be making them into colours [Japan-red, China-blue, India-purple]

Section2

We were given the task of portraying fear in our own eyes. This painting was based on a recurring nightmare I had been having during the time I was doing this piece.

Section3

Yet another themed subject. I decided to do a series of paintings based on the Holocaust. More specifically, I was trying to focus on the children of the Holocaust since they are usually not mentioned in detail.
I used the signature striped pyjamas of Auschwitz to signify the Holocaust.

This piece is supposed to signify a young child becoming more empty as they continue in the horror and gassing of the Holocaust camps. Their shoulders and head are burnt due to experimentation [My friend said it looked as though the child was rusting away due to the torture and how they were treated as machines in the camps]

An unfinished piece. I am working on it. It shows a young child [Blonde hair since, even if they were the "Ideal Aryan", they could be mistreated. She is clinging to an adult looking for protection but the adult is showing no contact with her.

A much simpler piece. A torn piece of the pyjamas on the barbed wire. The number that I added onto the tag is that of the Holocaust victim and painter David Olere.

I really like your style of painting, dear.
Didn't expect any painting with such theme and style to be posted here.
These pieces are very strong and powerful that I can feel the sorrow just looking at them, but quite simple at the same time.
I also like how you leave the objects abstract, which provides the viewers more room for imagination.

For the first painting in section 3, I think it'd be... more striking(?) if you painted a star of David somewhere. I don't know.. the star always reminded me that the people were not being judged by what they've done but by their race and religion, which is completly wrong, absurd, and sad.

Have you watched the movie The Boy in the Striped Pajamas?
The last piece reminded me of a scene from that movie.
It was such a heart breaking movie.. ;n;

By the way, I really like your design for the third flower. Although the picutre is kind of blurry. XD

Paint more please! I'd love to see more paintings from you.<3

Thank you for your post.

The reason that I didn't include a Star of David was because I want to get the point across that it wasn't just Jewish people who suffered. There were other civilians of different religions and people of many races who were victimised and I don't like to narrow it down to the Jews. That's why the little girl is going to be blonde with a hint of blue eyes, because that was the image of an "Ideal Aryan" yet even people who looked as such were victimised.
