BALLOONS BITE, Painting about balloons being mistaken for food PLASTIC POLLUTION SERIES


We use balloons to celebrate our most cherish moments, birthdays, graduations, congratulations, retirements, new years, and endless milestones that represents our accomplishments. We tie them to post and let them lose in the sky or to linger endlessly! Where do these balloons go? and where do they land? We know that they are finding plastic pieces and bags in the stomachs of birds. They find balloons stuck on trees by their strings and stuck in the bellies of cows in India! 
Balloons Bite. Don't use them - they are plastic & oil and do not disappear when let loose.
 We must eliminate balloons like plastic bags to prevent wildlife, its animals and mammals from a death that are caused by humans habits, our behavior- NO TO BALLOONS, lets make our fast food companies, our schools responsible and teach that they do not need to use balloons for advertising, party's or selling their products.
 We do not need them to celebrate our life time milestone and to destroy the environment at the same time.
It just does not make any sense.
