STOLEN PAINTING

Our fragility and that of the natural world are one in the same. We don't see ourselves as part of it all. We stupidly think that we will continue to go on, unaffected. 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.
Forty percent of all known species facing extinction are due to habitat loss and pesticides, a direct result of greed and expansionism. It all comes down to money, who has it and who doesn't. We should be ashamed by this and very afraid at the loss of any of it.

I am very lucky to live in a beautiful part of the world. I look at the small things around me and paint them in concert with a changing environment. These are the most vulnerable lives. In my piece Pickerel Weed the loon is shown rising in against a graphic background, struggling to survive in a, soon to be, artificial landscape. These scenes remind me of old photos or postcard from safer times, now lost as we are way past the tipping point.
