THE LAST SALMON
Oil Drilling & Precious Metal Exploration are happening at a growing rate and have disasterous effects on Wild Life. The very real consequences of such activities unchecked, will bring about the ' Last ' of species. After all it's already happened as the result of human activities to a sub species of Rhino and many others!
This Bear has dressed up to present us with the facts. Polluted oily waters leak from a painting causing an oil slick on the floor. The painting of the Last Salmon leaping, trying to avoid it's fate reminds us that there is a point of no return

I am still developing the collection which was held up in September when I discovered I had Parkinson's. It doesnt affect my right hand side at the moment so painting is still ok. These guys can get you anything at a price. Frankie and Little Mo own the streets in this town, big fans of Rene Magrite. Their alternative World has major problems with pollution. The sky has a yellow glow due to a weak protostar and factory smoke. Dont be found on the streets after dark, these guys take no prisoners.
This 'in progress' painting is an alternative comment on Mothers protecting their children. Gaza, Israel, Ukraine, in war zones and dreadful family situations. I find myself in tears watching the plight of families suffering for other people's gain. Likewise the suffering of innocent creatures at the hands of individuals for profit makes me so angry. This is the only way I can show my feelings.People spending millions on banannas hanging on a wall. Selfish and actually self defeating, nuts. Spend it on conservation or on other people! Save the lioness and cub.
