Christine Mix is a children's illustrator living in Vermont and works mostly in watercolor & gouache. I graduated college in Tampa, Fl. back in the late 80's, and later lived in the Palm Beach area - so this oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico hits too close to home. At times like these, I wish I lived closer so I could help with the animal and marine life rescue. But, since I can't be there in person, it's nice to know that somehow, we can help raise funds to support those wonderful people who can be there, and who are risking their own health to rescue the birds, fish and mammals. It's such a sad situation... I feel sometimes, we humans, with all of our consumption and greed, have become the predators of this wonderful planet. I really do believe though, by being creators, we can depict history, while hopefully, making this world a better place- for all creatures.
