Sorry to spoil your holier than thou belief that your food choices do not cause the death of an innocent animal, or infringe on the quality or length of life of an insect. I grow my own herbs & vegetables in an organic garden, it is impossible to harvest them without also harvesting small insect eggs, caterpillars and other insect larvae. Impossible with a capital I, capital M, possible. Furthermore you can not harvest wheat, oats, any grain, soy bean or legume on a large scale without using a tractor that scoops up and kills mice and other field critters in the process. I'm sorry (not really) to break this to you... everything, including your Whole Foods organic oatmeal and your Mori-Nu Tofu, cost the life of small animals and countless insects. Fact , you can not eat without taking life. Get over it.... a mosquito would not hesitate to dine on you. © Dove
Original art by Dove Cochrane. I have really great art posted here, and some crappy “learning experience “ art. (Just to show the creative waters don’t part every time we artists lay our bursh to canvas.) Along with my art, which I hope you will love, you’ll find a bunch of words written by me about art and my life experiences, poetry, and opinions. If you’re interested in a particular painting please email me and we can talk privately about price.
