Nourishing the Earth that Feeds Us

“Nourishing The Earth That Feeds Us”, located on the Arlington Market in Richmond, CA, is a community-centric vision of sustainability and how to get there. The work has been about a mindful collaborative process. Shoppers see how food grows and connects us to nature. They would see us work, and how the artist connects to the painting. Neighbors of the market, of all ages, have made their mark, creating a genuine community piece. Patrons love details of the local view of the Bay, hills and Native flora and fauna. One panel depicts current destructive agricultural practices, two show sustainable methods to benefit natural systems, and one imagines food grown in balance with nature. We have had gracious support from the market owners and their large extended family. We strive to inspire this community and beyond.
