This Monkey is on a big burlap bag painted in acrylic. Plastic bags are no longer encouraged but you can still buy some for .35 cents! (a plastic bag) if you need them.. 35 a bag- forget it - bring your own. Better yet -create your own. By now everyone knows how to recycle an old T shirt into a big with no sewing.. if not - google.
I'm o.k. with reusable bags but I wonder - is the damage already done and for individuals trying to make a difference- I wonder what rules apply to companies regarding -one time plastic. Have you seen the crates covered in Saran Wrap, which makes them easier to ship? Have you seen the solution created from plastic bottles - still being produced by the millions, I think a documentary (Netflix) stated we could easily reach the moon & back if we lined up all the plastic bottles. I have used reusable bags for a while now - mostly, they are stronger , we've all had the experience of a cheap plastic bag breaking.
The first monkey was sad looking - I guess I was pondering plastic too much, Storm remarked on his sad appearance so I made him - happy? O.k. perhaps not "happy" but slightly more cheerful, as he soaks in a pool with mushrooms rising beside him, mushroom clouds. Either way - it's a new big bold bag, I won't forget & why not... there was no plan -I just painted to create & this little chimp made himself known. What will you create today to save the planet?
hee hee - it's good to have goals.
