Deer, Me

Sequoia National Forest, Eastern CA

Well I’m in between paintings with too many photos and too many places to post them, feeling temporarily overwhelmed by choices of what to do first, but silly enough to blog the corniest most cliche pun ever. At least they’re current photos. This is a good time to share a few important messages that are conveyed so creatively I can’t stand it.

The Treeless Squirrel sends us a message of “Plant Trees Please” with a refreshing twist to the usual serious and extreme methods. The clever concept with a meaningful plea proves once again that creative thinking as opposed to anger and destruction is a much more effective way to encourage people to make changes. Click here to watch The Treeless Squirrel, and here to go to his furry website.
