G.24

Run away little one: 5.50 x 3.75

Living in New Orleans I thought nothing could be as tragic as Katrina , but this BP oil disaster gives tragedy a whole new dimension.  It is unimaginable how much damage has been done and will be done to the lives of people, the animals, the environment.  If my little paintings can help make a difference that would be so wonderful.  Thank you Kelly for making this all happen!
I've illustrated over 60 books mostly about natural history. My most recent book is...Two Bobbies  an amazing and true story about a dog and a cat rescued after Katrina.
These pieces were painted with opaque watercolor and ink on Arches Watercolor paper, the sizes are:
