DROUGHTS EDGE ILLUMINATED
(2021, OIL ON LINEN)
Artist's statement: This painting shows the beauty of the huge built environment and the colors and forms of nature. It also shows the stark problem of drought and overuse of water as populations grow, particularly in areas that are not predisposed to large human cities and agriculture. The bone-like wall of the shrinking lake should be a wakeup call to us all.
