My concern for environmental changes due to global warming has inspired me to create a series of paintings I've entitled "Flammable Florida". My wild and tropical Florida provides a dramatic contrast to what our future could look like if climate change accelerates. Human beings are quite capable of voicing opinions about global warming, but hey, what about the flowers? The wild creatures like the Florida panther? What about our mermaids? What do they have to say about these changes? In my paintings I have given them all a voice in the form of fiery protests.
"Twilight in the Bayou" features Florida's native flower King's Crown, sometimes known as the Flamingo Plant. In the bayou waterlilies are protesting, but the our star flower stands strong, waving its petals in a show of courage.
