Oceans In Peril Limited Edition _ This beautiful sunet colored work (3 of 3) has moving eyes that watch all the time in all angles. This was done in relation to what we are doing to our oceans. It is our hope that we do something about the problems we are causing to our future generations. Chemicals, radiation, drugs, oil, human induced dumpsite of plastics and all imagination of material goods have ended up in the oceans. Despite this bleak fact, we can begin taking individual steps to help our part. After all as a single person I am just a "drop in the ocean." But that is good enough for me to start.

Oceans In Peril Limited Edition
Our ancestors taught us to walk gently on the Earth—to honor the land, the waters, and the sacred responsibility we hold for generations yet to come. They reminded us to take only what we need, to live in balance with nature’s rhythms. But today, that wisdom is drowned beneath a tide of consumption and forgetfulness. Across the globe, oceans are crying out: mass die-offs of marine life, deep-sea creatures surfacing in distress, ecosystems unraveling under the weight of our waste. We’ve become a disposable society, blind to the consequences of our habits—eight billion strong, buying and discarding without pause. Industrial toxins, microplastics, radiation, and chemical poisons now course through our bodies and the bodies of the creatures we once revered. The balance is broken.
We must remember the Creator who gifted us the harvest, the gathering, the abundance. Yet we’ve turned away, distracted by inventions and fleeting wonders, discarding without reverence. The fish and wildlife return to the Creator, bearing witness: were they honored in their passing? Were they shared with the poor, the elders? Or were they wasted, forgotten? The answer matters—not just for them, but for all life. The future depends on our remembrance, our humility, our action. Because we are not separate from the Earth. We are one people, on one planet, entrusted with its care.
