With the ever changing climate due to staggering industrial carbon dioxide emissions and ever increasing world temperature, the coral reefs of the Carribean Sea are predicted to disappear within the next two decades due to the warming of the sea. I can’t believe that in my lifetime such an extinction as actually happening, and at such an accelerated rate. I know that in life nothing stays the same and that clinging to the past is futile, but in my latest painting, I try to capture the positive energy of that Eden.
