“Mother Nature” (2024)
Oil on Canvas, 18 x 24in



Concept: Symbolizes the duality between humans and nature. Mother Nature’s body is made from mountains, and her hair is roots and leaves. As she looks upward to the bright sun, she radiates positive energy. This piece was meant to remind us that despite how far we have come, humanity will always be deeply rooted within nature.We are all animals, with similar skeletal features, cell structures and characteristics to the creatures we share the Earth with. It is important to take care of our shared home, as we are very reliant on the ecosystems that uplift us.
