Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "I have been inspired and now take a second look at a little worm in the grass or a bird flying through the sky, because without conservationists, they may not be safe. Now, I am even more motivated to continue to study Environmental Science in college, and hopefully I can make as big of a difference Jacob Valentine has had."
