Recently, I've been focused on reading books about nature and climate change. With the realization of how fragile our planet's ecosystems are, I've become obsessed with animals, and their wellbeing. This antique map of Italy seemed like the perfect canvas to celebrate a few of the wonderful creatures who're native to this iconically shaped country. Let's save our freakin' planet, so they can keep on truckin'. This is part of a series called World Tour - in which I use pages from an old atlas as canvases - painting images relating to the place on each map.
Signed prints of this piece are available here, in my Etsy shop.
