I support climate action. I create paintings about climate change as a form of educating myself and the public. These people need to find a more effective way forward.

The view from London is - yes it is. In fact, the cause needs analgesia, urgently.

They've explicitly explained that they chose specific targets that wouldnt actually suffer damage. The negative publicity is people doing no research and pandering to outrage for clicks. Like this headline. So stfu.

such ignorant copy. every one of those protests was reported with the actual value ascribed to each work of art, so stop calling them priceless - they literally have famous prices. do better.
