Cole Smith's "Essential"
Artist Statement
Water is essential.
It comes in many shapes and forms. Water "issues" are constantly in the news: melting glaciers and sea levels rising, backyard wells running dry, the Gulf of Maine warming at an alarming rate, micro-plastics polluting the seas, and lead poisoning our drinking water.
These pictures of water are in all forms and in every season. The Earth is a beautiful and amazing place. We must advocate, educate, and change our behavior to protect our planet with everything we have.
Nature captures my attention. It is my hope that by sharing what inspires me, I can raise awareness and spur others to action!
Water is essential.
