Today is Earth day. 🌎
We are talking about all things planet, our Mother Earth whether it’s climate change, extinction, pollution, the list goes on...
I’d like to share a fact I came across from @stoppoachingnowofficial last week which I wanted to visualise this and created this artwork (minus humans) and swipe left for the facts! It’s shocking. I see this as modern day Noah’s ark moment. Are we getting to this point on our planet?
I’m really driven to think about how much more I can do going forward.
My work has always been inspired by nature’s wildlife, big and small. We really do owe it to these creatures to shout louder and stop all the awful poaching and for what??
I just don’t get it. 😢
I was lucky to be involved in @explorersagainstextinction who do amazing work, last year and rewild exhibition with @runwaygallery and I’m working on a few things
for the year ahead.

Good morning.
Today is Earth Day🌎
Although for many it’s 365 days a year this is a opportunity to raise awareness and think about making changes. Little changes add up. Artists play a big part in this message.

I listened to a great podcast episode from @ministryofartsorg with @mizogart and his guests were @artsnug who have teamed up with NeverLabel to plant thousands of trees worldwide, fighting deforestation one artwork at a time!
#RestoreMotherEarth is a group fundraising exhibition which brings together 13 internationally acclaimed artists, including Walthamstow's Johanna Wilbraham and Adriana Jaros, as well as Artsnug Artists Matt Jukes and Lene Bladbjerg. Using London Social Collective NeverLabel’s carbon negative screen print ‘Mother, Earth’ – they have each created an original artwork in their distinctive style which examines sustainability and their own relationship to carbon usage. 
All proceeds from this fundraising exhibition will go to The Canopy Project, aiding their global reforestation drive. Running from the 22nd– 28th April. Great work guys! Go look everyone 🌳🌳🌎🌳🙌🏻 #worldearthday2021 #earthday #restoremotherearth #climatechange ...

Good Tuesday morning. Early start today, back to school routine kicks in but love the early morning sun and promise of fine weather ahead today.

I had some fun hanging some circular and a hexagonal frame yesterday. I think they work quite well together.
Swipe left to see another artwork just finished featuring a 3D hand finished Salamis butterfly. 20cm frame.
Facts:
Found in the rainforests of central Africa, the Mother of Pearl Butterfly (Salamis parnassus) is a beautiful combination of light and dark metallic color, with iridescent pearl and purple highlights. The unusual shape and coloring of the underside wings give the Salamis parnassus camouflage protection when it roosts under leaves at night. This butterfly is in the Salamis group, which contain eight other known species that range from Africa to India.
I love the shape and colouring of these and they do feature a lot in my artworks. 🤍
Have a great day. I’m going to get out and enjoy some sun today ☀️

On the diagonal/ ideas
coming together.
This artwork features the Paper kite butterfly Idea leuconoe) also known as large tree nymphs.

These handsome butterflies have a wingspan of 12 to 14 cm. The paper kite is of Southeast Asian origin,
but can also be found in Northern Australia and Southern Taiwan.

Monotone urban texture and these beautiful monotone butterflies working together in harmony. Camouflage and mimicry is common in the natural world. I like the idea these butterflies are mimicking their surroundings.
20cm in circular frame, hand cut 3D butterflies.

Have a good Friday evening everyone. 🙌🏻☺️
