About me

With our degrading environment its crucial that people begin to feel responsible for caring and changing their ways of life to favor and support our environment. Nature cannot only rely on traditional teaching settings and academic publications to spark positive environmental actions and scientific understandings.
My goal is to create hand crafted pieces using natural formations and paintings illustrating the beauty of wildlife with scientific information to communicate to people the urgency and importance of restoring our natural environments.
I really believe that visual and creative pieces are accesible to a wider audience and can allow society to connect with their environments through having a better understanding, appreciation and value for our natural environments and their resources. If people know what they are protecting or helping, change can actually happen.
