| Our
world is on the brink of collapse. War, famine, poverty, suppression,
preventable disease, the list goes on and on. The causes include greed,
ignorance, misogyny, marginalization, intolerance and a toxic patriarchy.
Our fragility
and that of the natural world are one in the same. We don't see
ourselves as part of it all. We think that, as sentient beings,
we hold a higher place, but we don't. We are as much a part of the
circle of life on this planet as every other tiny creature. We’re
killing ourselves while up to 200 species go extinct every day -
out of a million species which includes birds, mammals, insects
and plants, reptiles, amphibians, arthropods, fish, crustaceans
and corals. I am very lucky
to live in a beautiful part of the world. I look at the small lives
around me and paint the things that I see in concert with a changing
environment. In my piece Pickerel Weed the loon is shown rising
in against a graphic background, struggling to survive in soon to
be artificial landscape. It’s reminiscent of an old photo in
an album, or a postcard from a safer time. |
