Toothpaste Cannot Go Back In The Tube
2020
Acrylic on Canvas
84" x 50"


This painting depicts an Orangutan and a Chihuahua on a melting ice floe.
The Orangutan is holding up a toothpaste tube, not only as a piece of plastic garbage left by humanity, but also as a metaphor for the irreparable damage we are inflicting on our world. Thus the title of the painting. I also wanted to make the background as important to the message as the two characters and object. The Chihuahua is barking out the title.
