Well here's my first art tumblr post!
I plan on posting a mix of new and old art and then just keeping current from there
Anyway, here she is!
Title: Untitled (open to suggestions)
Medium: Pencil, Acrylic Paint
Reference: Unnamed classmate
Statement:
This piece was part of a series, the overall theme being climate destruction. In the image a girl is staring into the beavers eyes, they are sharing a moment of reflection as each considers their role in the environment. They are sharing a spiritual bond as human connects back to her roots. I chose a beaver due to them being ecosysyem engineers. They calculate each log and slap of mud creating a structure so efficient that human engineers are unable to replicate it. They get their title of ecosystem engineers from their practice of digging deep into pond beds so water stays at an appropriate level year round, enabling pond life to flurish. They take a dry pond bed and literally tranform it into an ecosystem full of life.
- That's my infodump haha (you should look into more though I just scratched the surface!)
