'Invasive ll' will debut this weekend at North Hills Art Center

This Saturday "Invasive ll" will debut in North Hills Art Center's show, 'Art of the Earth'.  This piece is 24 x 18, it is fragmented into 6 pieces - 3 up, 3 down.  It is pictured in my backyard among its inspiration.  Yep - I have bamboo in my backyard, yep - it's invasive.  Trust me, buy the painting, do not plant your own bamboo.  In my defense, the bamboo lived here before I did.  I just try to keep it at bay, it's not easy.

All sales from the "Art of the Earth" show benefit Beechwood Farms Nature Reserve, and the artist.  I wanted to submit 'Invasive ll' for this event, because Beechwood Farms works hard to educate the public about the danger of invasive species.  My kids and I spend a lot of time at Beechwood.  We even enjoyed visiting the goats hired to clean up some invasive plants a couple of years ago.

'Invasive ll' is mounted on reclaimed elections signs (see pervious posts to learn more) making it truly Art of the Earth.

I will have 2 other works in the show too - 'The Thaw' and 'Seagulls at Dusk'.  These paintings are also mounted on reclaimed election signs.

I am one of 70 artists on exhibit in this show of 153 pieces - That's a LOT of Earth love.

One more note - A free ASWP Household membership ($50.00 value) is included with the purchase of any artwork from this show, courtesy of the Audubon Society of Western PA.
