Nature as we know it is balancing on the edge and it is our responsibility to help secure a more sustainable future for all of her flora and fauna. My intention is to have my work create a connection not only to the physical beauty of the natural world that I love, but to reach a deeper understanding of our own essential connections to nature through the aspects of the four balanced elements of earth, air, fire and water.

I created this body of work for a 2019 two person exhibit at the Tides Gallery located in the Presidio National Park in San Francisco, California. It later traveled in 2020 to the Grand Theatre Center for the Arts in Tracy, California.
