As everyone knows, the oil spill is said to be one of the most horrendous, if not the most, natural disaster in our history. It’s something that has not yet been corrected, and may not be corrected until the end of August. If and when that happens, the remains of the oil will never be completely cleaned up. It is an issue that has been a consistency on the national news. It is not only something that is affecting people around the world, it is also killing and harming our sea and wild life.
Last week I spent some time visiting some friends in Florida and Georgia. We went to a few beaches and hung out. Prior to arriving, I had wondered, “Are any of these beaches going to be affected by the oil spill?” Upon arrival, luckily, none of them had been reached by the oil spill. It was something that crossed my mind every time I found myself upon the beach.
When I returned from my trip, I decided to make a few posters concerning the oil spill. We have all seen the awful imagery on the national news of injured wildlife that may or may not survive. It’s an issue that I find very important so I worked on these as personal work, and I would like to turn these into a series of prints if anyone would be interested in purchasing them.
When is enough, enough?
