ARTIST STATEMENT

The old adage “Red sky at night, sailor’s delight, Red Sky in the morning, sailor’s warning” is meant to be an alert about global warming and inevitably about storms caused by climate change. Red Sky In the Morning pays respect to all those souls who lost their lives in the storms created by climate warming. My hopes are that we acknowledge and accept. We caused it, we can end it.
