Thank you Alexi and Barbara for your help setting up and shooting this work.<p></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>michaeljeremybrownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05313866785685595707noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143943499927623339.post-68337756514111334212022-08-05T15:52:00.004-04:002022-08-05T16:07:46.151-04:00Old Growth Exhibition at Propeller Gallery<p> </p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZj96-w41wrtbEQzchIhfwaTfpxIiIO-wY0ZGeGeR4pzcP8KHd2WSOj6FTbQ-FneVBXzgObZeJkVGfFhs6pJ2CNgHIAEtIqQgxkvZ3tItp7aopOS-7wQr2SBWuHjw98P6KWe_M2SHkaaEFalyKPgHFS9OyabDb0qMvvFGTBzXX_Gncazlr6xMXJgkd/s300/Old-Growth-Banner-300x300.png" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="300" data-original-width="300" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZj96-w41wrtbEQzchIhfwaTfpxIiIO-wY0ZGeGeR4pzcP8KHd2WSOj6FTbQ-FneVBXzgObZeJkVGfFhs6pJ2CNgHIAEtIqQgxkvZ3tItp7aopOS-7wQr2SBWuHjw98P6KWe_M2SHkaaEFalyKPgHFS9OyabDb0qMvvFGTBzXX_Gncazlr6xMXJgkd/w400-h400/Old-Growth-Banner-300x300.png" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p>I am pleased that my piece, "Can you make a difference?" was selected for this group exhibition at <a href="https://propellerartgallery.com/exhibitions/old-growth/?mc_cid=24b9b86c9e&mc_eid=ae22643f14">Propeller Gallery</a>, Toronto.

He had some very inspiring quotes about the environment and the Amazon. <span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">The palette references water, which is a huge part of the Amazon. Recently I read that rain clouds that form over the Amazon come from the moisture from the jungle.
