Disappearing Dad

I read an article on christianitymagazine.co.uk by Mark Stibbe, which is about his views on fatherless families.

In response to that article I used photoshop to create the image above. I lowered the opacity of the father to show him 'disappearing'. I purposely made the lines around him jagged and sharp because as Mark Stibbe portrays through his article, when a dad leaves it is not always a smooth exit, it often leaves the family feeling hurt and almost like there is a sharp hole in the family unit, it's often a painful subject to talk about.
