Reflection

This painting was created to spread insight and hopefully, inspire others to take actions against man-created disasters such as ocean pollution and climate change. We were inspired to do this project after going through different images and writings and using multiple resources to decide on the best idea. The trash and grime in the human body represents the way we affect our surroundings and affect ourselves as well. The heart is brighter than the rest of the body to show that there is hope for us to become involved and to do better for the environment. The dazzling coral represents how with a willing heart anything is possible. Overall, the ending achievement was the recognition that if you change your mindset and your heart, anything you set your mind to is possible.
