A little piece of paradise
Original acrylics on canvas
48 × 72 inches
Every time I look at this painting the Joni Mitchell song “Big yellow taxi” comes into my head:
‘Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot’
“Big Yellow Taxi” is an environmentalist anthem that critiques environmental destruction and excessive urban development. Mitchell wrote the song on a trip to Hawaii', where she noticed a huge parking lot that tarnished the natural beauty of the islands in the middle of the northern Pacific Ocean.
This painting is a reminder that every piece of land that is left as its natural set is a little piece of paradise on earth.
