STILL HERE, 6X8, OIL SOLD


The equation of animal and vegetable life is too complicated a problem for human intelligence to solve, and we can never know how wide a circle of disturbance we produce in the harmonies of nature when we throw the smallest pebble into the ocean of organic life. 


George Perkins Marsh
1801 - 1882




American conservationist was the first to reveal the menace of environmental misuse, to explain its causes, and to prescribe reforms. 








130 years later, we are still struggling with the same problems.......and yet, the wild areas are "Still here".

SOLD

Conservation of the land takes many forms. In agriculture, this can mean leaving soil out of production for a year or more, rotating crops, weed control and planting trees as windbreaks. This scene captures several of these conservation efforts at work.

This impressionistic landscape was painted with a palette knife and most of it was done en plein air.
