Mississippi and Illinois Rivers Flood, cold wax, mixed media on paper, mounted on cradled wood panel, 8 x 8 x 1.5 inches

ARTIST STATEMENT:

The phrase, “a picture is worth a thousand words,” sums up perfectly the dramatic images captured by NASA satellites of the changes in our environment as a result of global warming. Most striking to me, are the images revealing the visual signals of a changing climate in beautifully colorful, yet devastating detail. 

This painting depicts the flood captured by satellite in May 2019, after heavy rains fell on saturated ground in the Midwest and Plains states, flooding the rivers near St. Louis, Missouri.

The image below offers a view of Mississippi and Illinois Rivers Flood in situ to help visualize how this piece would look in a home setting.
