Award winning art

This is the first of a long series (in progress) of global warming related art. It is called Palm Tree and Fish 1. This is a tongue in cheek first try at explaining how I view what we are already beginning to experience. I spend time in the Florida Keys and was there shortly after a major hurricane had put all of Marathon under water. The poor palms were suffering from the salt diet of sea water. So I thought it would be fun to imagine if they decided to adapt to a possible new environment. I think the fish really enjoy their company. What do you think?

What do we know about adaptability to such major changes. Very little yet. I do not like to think of change as simply distruction of the tried and true but as having some "possibilities" too. This is the first of many submissions.

I welcome original ideas for paintings to develop in my collection.

I welcome opportunities to set up a global warming art show of my work at any gallery or appropriate location.

Hope to hear from you.

Best, Art by Coralee
