Hello dear Steemians,

 

Today is the @ArtVenture contest „Climate change „ closed down. We have time now to look through the works and make a decision.

To accomplish the Climate change topic I thought to present your my work of a 15 year old school girl Greta Thurnberg, who started her "school strike for the climate" or „skolstreikjk för klimatet! In August 2018 in front of Swedish Parliament. Who thought that she will change the world, who thought that she spread Climate care among other young people in many different countries.

Young people who want to have a healthy planet for them and their children.

We the generation of 80’s were also concerned about the climate and you can see the nice video with beautiful Song, that was performed by many famous Singers. But despite of that now 30 years later we could not change much. Let’s help our children to change the world and to care about our place.

Artists United for Nature - Yes, We Can

 


My painting today dedicated to this little but Big Girl Greta Thurnberg.

Great picture:)

Thank you Tom for your nice words, I was a bit anxious doing that, because the photo had so many shadow areas and because I wanted to include everything then the figure itself should be small which makes it more difficult. But at the end I am satisfied with the result :)

So beautiful portrait of Greta!!! Thanks to share the process too ^_^

Thank you Silvia, I am glad you like it and thank you for viewing. Always very nice to hear your opinion of professional Artist :)

Thank you for supporting Art :)

I did not know the story of this nice girl, it is really worrying as pollution and the vague extrategias of world governments in raising awareness about pollution and future effects.

I forgot to add this comment to my publication that I will share with you that says as follows.

God always forgives, Man in some occasions, nature never.

Thank you for your nice words, I am glad that little girl is so stubborn and do not want to stop in reaching the aim, to attract the attention of as many people as possible. Hopefully the governments of countries will change something seeing that :)

Beautiful girl living in the slump. That's too bad.
Nice and colorful painting. You were able to portray her mood nicely.
