“During my journey as an artist, I have chosen to express universal ideas and beliefs that all life is sacred, and I have spoken out for peace and human compassion in many of my works,” Learner said. “I have also focused on the incredible diversity and beauty present in our natural world and want to call attention to our responsibility to protect it from exploitation and destruction.”
