About the Artwork

My scene shows the beautiful Mopan River. There are fish, palm trees and other trees, and many people are working and carrying firewood to their houses. Other people are fishing. I am depicting the value of effort. It is important because work makes money to help our families.

My dad is a construction worker and my mom takes care of me and my four little siblings. We are loving and Christian. I want to be a priest so I can preach the word of God and help many people. To save the environment I do not burn tires or throw dead animals in the river. I clean and water the plants at school.

Medium: Acrylic paint
Source of Light: Sun reflecting on river

 

En mi bello rio Mopán, hay peces, árboles, palos de coco, y mucha gente trabajando, algunos trayendo leña para sus casas y otros pescando.

Somos una familia amorosa y cristiana, mi papá se dedica a la albañilería, y mi mamá nos cuida, tengo cuatro hermanos y nos ayudamos mutuamente. Cuando crezca quiero ser pastor para predicar la palabra de Dios. No quemo llantas, no tiro animales muertos al río para evitar la contaminación y ayudo con la limpieza en mi escuela
