Billboard Image Quote:
“My image highlights the seemingly small choices we make every day and the great impact they can have on our world. We all have choices to make. Register to vote and make yours known.”

Artist Statement:
The environment is important to me and we can all play a role in saving it. My image is a reflection on the environmental issues facing our world today—global warming, acid rain, air pollution diminishing rain forests and out of balance ecosystems. Much like a balance scale, the woman is measuring the choices she can make—to reduce, reuse and recycle—in hopes of minimizing her carbon footprint and to make a positive personal impact on earth. The tree upon her head symbolizes the environmental issues that weigh heavily on all of our minds. We can make choices every day to improve our environment, and one of those choices is to become engaged politically and to vote.

Artist Bio:
My work is whimsical, colorful and just plain fun. I can’t imagine a day without working on a project or painting or just sketching and writing down ideas. My desire is for my art to make a positive impact by speaking directly to the heart. I am a painter, illustrator, sculptor, graphic designer, photographer and crafter. I have a degree in graphic design from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. My work is in corporate and private collections in the United States as well as Canada, Germany, England and the Netherlands.
