Happy Earth Day!


Happy Earth Day everyone! I hope you are all is enjoying your time off. This is one of my old paintings. I thought it's perfect for this quote.

“Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children.”
~Native American Proverb

I also did a demo yesterday for the Earth Day Kid's Night at WFM Alexandria and here are some photos from the event. That's my table and the card I designed for the kids.



There are a few things you can do to be green. Here's a simple list you can follow from EarthDayNature.org.
  1. Eat Smart – Learn what’s in your food, where it came from and who it impacts.
  2. Eat Local – Where possible, buy food that is in season from local food producers.
  3. Eat Sustainably – Eat sustainable seafood — one of the only things that we eat that we still get from the wild.
  4. Eat Green – Eat more fruits and vegetables — it's good for your health and the planet's.
  5. Eat Out – Spend more time outdoors and have a nice picnic with family and friends.
Happy Green Eating!
