our own lives. How we use it
is important if we are to
continue to live healthy
lives.

last century that we have
progressed at an amazing rate
relative to the rest of human
history. I feel we may be
paying a price for the
progress we have made through
pollution and waste created to
make our lives easier. We

wall every morning. I’m not a
politician and I don’t have
the answers to alternative

mere landscape painting
concerned with light, form and
texture Hunter’s considered
painterly image reveals a
developed consciousness of the
pictorial image and ...
