Sustainability of Weirs

I work with many layers using mixed media, oils and cold wax and collage, on wood panels. Many of my works show concerns for sustainability in our land. The management and care of the environment draw me to think about the recent flooding of our land and the evidence of a struggle with biodiversity and the ecosystems of the many dams.
