Animal Shield: Zebra Painting

Zebra for standing out and embracing differences. Zebra for free spirits, for being unique in community, for balancing polarities. Reminiscent of an ancient shield or crest, each piece in the Animal Shield collection features textures, layers, and a luminescent quality produced by a faux encaustic technique. __________________________ Inspiration. I created the Animal Shield Collection as Covid-19 swept the world and we were asked to Shelter In Place for our collective health & safety. During this early pandemic time, when humans were causing less immediate damage to our earth's climate (less travel, less pollution, etc), I wondered how animals around the world were reacting as we stepped back into our homes. Were they potentially feeling more relaxed, brave, safe, and free? Was the earth actually able to take a moment to rest & heal herself? This was the initial impetus behind creating my Animal Shields collection. The strong pull of Progress & Productivity is relentless in our modern world and it can remove us from quiet, grounding connections we feel in the presence of plants, animals, and the Natural world. There are lessons to be learned when we pay attention. Animal Shields are symbolic reminders to protect and connect with those that share this Earth with us.
