The Greatest of Wanderers (Kenya)

Oil on linen.

54x54x1.50"

"The Greatest of Wanderers" was inspired by the efforts of the Sheldrick Trust as they strive to create a world that believes all elephants deserve to roam wild and free, safe from harm.

I first became aware of the fragile nature of our planet as an elementary school student. For Christmas one year, I asked my parents for the book “Wildlife in Danger” published by the IUCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature) They are still an important organization providing information, plans, and hope for our endangered earth. Worried about the environment as a kid, I drew pictures of animals constantly.
Now I am bringing out a series of paintings, to be exhibited at The Other Art Fair in Los Angeles at Barker Hangar in September 2021, that shed light on climate change, the beauty of the natural world, and our place with other species.
