Fresh water is one of the most important things in life.
Benji & Ms. Zulu remind us in my last post, that all plants & animals need plenty of fresh water to live and grow.
SO, how can we keep it clean? Can we pollute less? How will life grow if it drinks poison?
There is one other side to this mini-mural. Looks to me like kids are sharing.
Here’s older kids, still sharing.

Running out of water!
I think you are right, Chris. The planet is running out of fresh water.
i often wonder, where did all that water go? Such as talked about in the bible…
We drank it!
Yes, we drank it, worse, what we didn’t drink, we fouled with our pollution.
Yeah!
Society destruction throughout humanity..
Water will soon be the next gold. As you mentioned it’s very precious.
I think it is liquid gold in some places already.
It’s sad.
A very thoughtful artist. Love the sort of blurred style. True message. Very important.
Thoughtful is a perfect description, and I like the blurred style, too!
Resa, this is beautiful, and I’d like to share this with you:

Hahaha! That was great, Maria! Thank you! I hope I find some art with nature here this summer.
The worst fact is that the rich daily waste more water than it is needed by the poor…
That sounds like a sick fact. The rich have always squeezed the poor, and now are squeezing the middle class into a new age poverty.
I love the ‘fluffiness’ of the water in the boy’s hand, almost like he’s holding cotton! 😉 xxxxx Happy Monday and new week! 🙂 xxxxxxxxx
Yes, it makes the water look even more special! xxxxxxx Have a great week, Marina! 😀 xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Beautiful message Resa – water the most precious commodity, need to safe guard and nurture this gift of life.
Yes, we do need to safe guard it. Many don’t have any. I try to be conservative with my usage, but I constantly see how rich I am with water, and how much I waste. I just turn on the tap!
The artist has conveyed a lot with so much ease.I like the shades of blue.
I agree with you there, Sidran. The artist is sending a message that adults and kids alike can learn from.
The images of sharing and high value put on water are wonderful to see xx
I agree! Also, there is an entertainment value that draws many in. That value lies in the art from the artist.
Great point, Resa! Have a wonderful day 🙂
Wonderful message for children of all ages.
I thought so! Also, a poignant message for all children over 18, the children adults.
Here in California the drought is over, but in a couple of years the, glut, the seven years of plenty (OK, we get Biblical here) are over. It’s a long-term problem, another case where government needs to be responsible and competent. Anyhow, I’m still filling up pails and barrels. We need water. Water is a wonderful thing and the artwork shows it.
Yes, I am aware of the crazy water climate in California. Pails and barrels are good! Perhaps you could build yourself a small personal water tower? I know that sounds like something the government should do, but they probably won’t!
At least the drought is over for now, and I am happy for that.
This is an artwork with a message, for sure!
Yes, it is.
The water got to me, I plan on sharing it if you don’t mind. I have a friend who was a newspaper editor that gave up his career to move to Kenya to help bring water and healthcare to rural areas. I think he will enjoy this. Thanks as always for great stuff.
Share away!!! 😀
Such a soft look, but deep in meaning.
It’s deeper than the deepest well! 😀
These are really beautiful – thanks for sharing!
My pleasure!!! Seems I missed a few comments, but I appreciate and I am catching up! 😀
Hey! Such a deep and meaningful message through these! Were they taken in ottawa ? x
Yes, Ottawa!
