“Flying Rivers,” 8’ x 12’ (2.43 m x 3.65 m), acrylic on canvas, was painted on the roof of Kaz’s studio in Berkeley, California, on September 22, 2022. Zé Paiva from Brazil took sideview and drone photos of the process and posted them in Instagram and FaceBook. There have been a great number of positive responses, as people seem to recognize that we all need to work together to help plant trees in Amazon Rainforest.

Your visit to www.inochi-trees.org may clarify what “flying rivers” are and their significance for regulating the global climate.

Love, Kaz
