Opportunity

Project Summary

This piece was inspired by frustrations over climate change and political dialogue discrediting the validity of these changing times. Painting is therapuetic and this was an opportunity to replicate a somewhat popular iconography communicating client change visually.

Approach

I covered the pre-stretched canvas in gesso and a base layer of lime green paint before starting on the outline. Once the base green had dried I copied over a sketch tracing of the plant hand icon onto the canvas with pencil. I then added several layers of white to the silhouette icon to create the white on green negative space effect.

Solution

After some brainstorming and sketching I mapped out this plant hand icon to communicate the climate change message I had in mind. The piece is a graphic response and a visual protest to political discredits.

Impact

A lucky buyer will own the first original canvas version of this piece which will be turned into a print that will be replicated across mediums. The original is one-of-a-kind and will be an awesome addition to any sustainable friendly home and space.
