This is my latest painting. It’s an acrylic abstract of a stylised earth containing a green heart, floating in a hot red universe. The globe came about by accident when I was messing about with primary colours on a canvas and I’m very happy with the result.In the middle of the heart is a quote from Chief Seattle (see close up picture here), “The earth does not belong to us … we belong to the earth”. Being a pagan at heart, I have always loved that quote and it seemed to fit very well with the painting … and with these times. The extreme weather conditions we are experiencing more regularly may be indications that we’ve pushed the earth too far and that global warming is inevitable.
