I paint what the future could look like; I aim is to increase awareness of global warming and that we need to act now. By painting famous landmarks around the world, I hope to make the viewer think and make changes, however small.

I describe the paintings as a utopia in dystopia because in each painting, the wildlife has recovered from our actions and flourishing, often in new locations.
