The vision of EcoArt to promote a sustainable life on earth provides a meaningful focus for artists to express their commitment to the environment.  In this exhibition the public can see a great diversity of styles, symbols, and media through which artists are addressing environmental concerns.

 

Generally, my work has moved along two paths. On one, abstracted nature images become a focus for meditation to evoke transcendent dimensions of natural phenomena.  Along a different path, images are used to inspire resistance to current policies: political posters calling attention to our abuse of nature.

 

In this triptych the two paths merge.  Moving from left to right: the emergence of natural forms; the middle panel: the formation of mountainous terrain; the far right panel, the unchecked pollution assault.  The far right panel of the triptych was then transformed into a graphic poster about global warming, printed for separate distribution.
