This painting depicts a hairdresser part way through having her once long, multi-coloured hair shaved off to raise awareness of human sex trafficking and to provide a monetary gift for The Mustard Tree Foundation’s Rahab Project: restoring hope and belief by identifying and supporting those affected by sexual exploitation. The Gift I and The Gift III depict earlier and later stages of the process. The slightly more muted colours (in comparison to The Gift I) in this painting show a more reflective sitter and reveals a calmer atmosphere as the event progresses. The sitter’s faith was a considerable factor in her giving her ‘gift’, the exaggerated contrast in tone and strong light suggest the spiritual element of this act.

25% of profits from sales (original and prints) will be donated to The Mustard Tree Foundation’s Rahab Project.
