Glad everyone loves the new art. 😘

Now that we have your attention, this piece has quite a profound message.

The artwork invites us to reflect on how we impact our environment and the creatures that inhabit our shared spaces.

All of Canada needs to stop what they are doing, spare a thought for the child whose jawbone was found on the grounds of the Qu’Appelle Indian Residential School in Lebret, Saskatchewan. Bone is about 125 years old, Sask coroner says. Child was btwn 4 to 6 years. @fsinations

I got an email congratulating me for getting elected but asking me to “dress up” for city meetings as my clothes are “lacking credibility”. Give me the strength to model for my daughter that leadership is having the courage of your convictions and the work ethic of a champion.

[Richard Geraint Evans @RGE_Art]

Sometimes I wonder if my grandchildren will visit all the trees I've drawn. To see how they've changed. To see if they're all okay. I'd love that.
