Our fondest memories are often our most colorful…
This large scale painting celebrates our sea’s coral reefs, a spectacular wonder of earth’s natural treasures. Threatened by the effects of global warming, “bleaching” occurs when the natural algae and other organisms that provide color, are expelled from the coral, turning it white. However, there is hope: if sea conditions are reversed in time, the coral can return to full health—and may not be lost to all but a vibrant memory. It is no coincidence that the name of this painting also shares the name of a bitter sweet movie filled with hope and love.
