		<description>Please take a few moments to visit my website gallery www.greenartstudio.com. The medium I use is beeswax and  pigments that are toxicologically harmless and on papers that are sustainably harvested plant based or recycled cotton rag.

Knowing that:
          - most paintings/paints are composed of toxic chemicals, 
             petro-oils, plastics and heavy metals along with 
             preservatives and fungicides like formaldehyde
          - most paintings/paints also produce off gases that
             increase the toxicity of the environment in which they are 
             manufactured and displayed.
          - present labeling of art materials as non-toxic is regulated 
            by self interested fine art paint industry representatives.

Not only does the medium I work in help to create a healthy environment, my paintings have also been described as visually healing as well as beautiful. These paintings are created using a natural, food container safe medium of beeswax and pigments carefully selected for their non toxic characteristics. More in depth writing can be found on my website by clicking on “Beeswax medium” and reading the articles there.

Thanks for considering my invitation to visit my website gallery: www.greenartstudio.com and for choosing to use your energies to create healthy environments. 

Please forward this to friends and/or associates that may be interested.  
     
Best Regards,
