#letsdrawthechange

Something a bit new, and for a good cause 💚 I am not very vocal about it because I sometimes feel like it doesn't match my current work, but most of my education and my previous job (which weren't art related at all) revolved around sustainability and that's a topic that has always been dear to me. I switched to a mostly plant-based and local diet 4 years ago, became interested in movements like slow-fashion and zerowaste lifestyle, and generally became more conscious about my impact on our ecosystem. Now that art is my job, I want to find ways to still incorporate my values into my work, and use art as a medium to subtly raise awareness on important and urgent topics. Finding the right balance between advocating for a cause, drawing projects that make you (and me) smile and still being "authentic" will probably take a bit of time, but I am hoping to get there eventually!

Feliz #DíadelaTierra 🌎💛 En preparación para este día, esta frase entró a mi cabeza: Todos habitamos la misma Tierra 🌿 Quiero saber, ¿qué significa eso para ti? Personalmente me hace sentir responsabilidad de cuidarla para mí y mis cohabitantes que pueden verse afectados por mis acciones. Que este día de la Tierra sirva para renovar nuestros compromisos ambientales y exigir los cambios estructurales necesarios para que TODOS podamos seguir disfrutando de este planeta 🌎🌿💛🌈 #ourplanetweek #onetreeplanted #letsdrawthechange #earthday @ourplanetweek @onetreeplanted @pelaeldiente #pelaeldiente https://www.instagram.com/p/CcqGfC5roGr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#EzRepost @wonderfulcoloring with @ezrepostapp From @faynnn #wonderfulcoloring Posted @withregram • ✋🌿🌸🐝 *Biodiversity* This is the third prompt for #OurPlanetWeek and this subject is very dear to my heart. It's not a news to say that plants and animals were there way before us, but have now started to disappear massively, mainly because of our ways to live. From my perspective, humans are also facing a challenge about biodiversity... cherish differences are replaced by a form of cloning and the society is pushing in the direction of a behavioral conformity, where everyone is tempted to do the same thing : Consume to have more. About materialism, remember that *less is more* My interpretation is composed with some plants vulnerable to extinction, endangered or endangered in the wild. The monkeys I choosed to draw are the red-shanked douc and these beauties are critically endangered 🐒 The main reason that they are all at risks is the lack of human protection about them, massive uncontrolled deforestation and the industry of agriculture. It's not only palm, all the fields with a single specie or concentrated animals for meat are not a great choice for biodiversity and our planet. An advice I've heard from a french protector to help some species and fight against the loss of biodiversity, particularly in some places where the buildings and agriculture industry have recovered the lands : Stop cutting the grass in your gardens, let it grow 🌱🌱🌱 Because that will attract pollinators, birds and tiny animals who will do their job to spread seeds and recreate biodiversity 💓 Plus that will save you time to do something else... it's a win-win situation ^^ #ourplanetweek #onetreeplanted #letsdrawthechange #artivism #ecology #traditionalart #illustrationchallenge #illustrationnow #arttherapy #moleskine (FSC) #drawing #coloring #nature #ourplanetweek2021 #endangeredspecies #redshankeddouc #watercolor #artwork #floralartwork #botanicalart #illustration #conservation #plants #biodiversity #gardens #carnifloral @ourplanetweek @onetreeplanted https://www.instagram.com/p/COqZN9wDHlD/?igshid=fvwuhbs1osqc

Fourth prompt of the @ourplanetweek's nature topics - REUSE+REDUCE. . For this prompt I decided to draw plastic bottles and caps to remind you to recycle them and to use reusable water bottles. Plastic bottles require around 450 years to decompose in a landfill! That number is scary on its own, but if you take into consideration our fast rate of production and usage of plastic products, it gets even more alarming. The change starts with each and every one of us. Buy reusable products and reduce your plastic waste. Create better future for us, our children, and our planet 🌍🌱💚 .

Illustration for @ourplanetweek Prompt : Biodiversity Kenapa keanekaragaman hayati itu penting? Ternyata penting banget, untuk semua manusia. Organisme, ekosistem, dan proses ekologi memberi kita oksigen dan air bersih, mereka membantu siklus karbon dan memperbaiki nutrisi, memungkinkan tanaman tumbuh, mengendalikan hama dan penyakit, dan membantu melindungi dari banjir dan mengatur iklim. Kalau kita bisa mulai dari diri sendiri untuk menjaga mereka kenapa enggak? Jangan berhenti di kamu aja! Yuk share biar kita bisa sama-sama menjaga bumi kita🌱 . Why is biodiversity important? It turns out to be very important, for all humans. Organisms, ecosystems, and ecological processes supply us with oxygen and clean water, they help cycle carbon and fix nutrients, they enable plants to grow, they keep pests and disease in check, and they help protect against flooding and to regulate the climate. If we can start with ourselves to protect them, why not? Spread the words! so we can protect our earth together🌱 . #ourplanetweek 2nd edition is hosted by these amazing artists: @asiaorlando_ @beatheillustrator @daniipollehn @debi_hudson @hollymaguireuk @ici.jozi @jonchingart @julika.illustration @kailaelders @karlasandersart @lavater_art @melanie.johnsson @nuriabojn @rochewoodworthillustration @rosannatasker.illustration @stephfizercoleman For every illustration posted between March 21st and March31 a tree will be planted!🙌🌳💕 #onetreeplanted #letsdrawthechange The first book from last year is now available on Kickstarter (and one of my illustration is in it!)
