Original: Earth Protector

This piece is inspired by the water protectors and earth guardians, the indigenous tribes and all who stand with them.The central figure stands on a mound of energy and offers a prayer for the Earth and waters. There's a bubble of light emanating outward from the center. Looking closely you find collage messages layered in. The words "listen to understand" and "cozy haven" are incorporated as is a bushel of red and yellow beets.16 x 20 inches Mixed media Acrylic on canvas
