OIL SPILL






FOLLOWING THE OIL SPILL THAT SAVAGED THE GULF OF MEXICO, WHEN BP'S DRILLING PLATFORM, "DEEP WATER HORIZON" EXPERIENCED A BLOW OUT, I DECIDED TO DO A SERIES IN RESPONSE TO THIS.

THE FIRST PAINTING REFLECTS THE LIVES OF FARMERS ON THE GULF COAST AND AID WORKERS WHO WERE STRUCK BY THE ENORMITY OF THE DISASTER.
