Originally I planned to do one painting with seven babies, some happy, some crying, maybe one crawling away and another pulling someone's ear. But when I had the babies all together, each parent let me know in no uncertain terms that they did not want me to paint their baby as the crying one. I understood because my daughter was in this painting too.

All Gone Awry

So I divided it up into two paintings. All Gone Row was the painting that all the parents wanted to see. All gone Awry allowed me to paint the reality. My daughter is the second from the right.--Steve Hanks
