Context

Banksy was my primary inspiration. In particular, I drew direct parallels from his work "Rage, Flower Thrower". 

"Rage, Flower Thrower" : https://userscontent2.emaze.com/images/5cacc723-0d58-4088-b051-fd71c4512094/1d6eb8666f414f623ed5d0ab58fb1304.jpg

I particularly admired the contrast between the black and white man and the colorful flowers. The color served as a way for Banksy to draw in the viewers attention to the apparent "out of place" item in the art. Likewise, I left the Earth in color because I wanted to emphasize the way humans are "burning" the Earth. 

Banksy's grafitti work was meant to placed on publicly visible surfaces. By imitating his style, my artwork is also adaptable to many surfaces - ie stickers on laptops or bottles, posters on walls, etc. This way, the message about global warming has potential to spread far and wide.
