This series is entitled: “The Crosses We Bear”. Various endangered species, habitats, and cultures are depicted on cross-shaped canvases. They range in size from large landscapes to smaller paintings of endangered species and plants. The cross shape gives the images greater impact by creating a forceful visual message that depicts the dire circumstances the earth is facing with the potential loss of these species and habitats.
