Regardless of how I feel about Obama, I believe democracy is about more than just voting. I choose to address different political issues with my art, using images to increase awareness, and art sales to raise funds for social causes I care about. We all have outlets for our voices and choices about how we choose to spend our money, whether its purchasing a fuel efficient hybrid or paying a little extra for electricity from green energy sources. Each of these acts, sends a message to our leaders and corporations about the direction we want them to go.
