Of his work, he says he hopes to inspire more young people, “especially people of colour, to be involved with interacting with nature and learning about the environment… If everyone did this, can you imagine what a beautiful world this could be?”SARA BOCCACCINI MEADOWS is a British-born illustrator based in Los Angeles.
