(Study for Save Our Planet poster)
n.d.

A vibrant artwork featuring a stylized black and white creature with prominent eyes on a bright yellow background. Above the creature is a speech bubble with the text "Save Our Planet! Save our wildlife Alexander Calder." The creature appears to be a fusion of a fish and a bird, symbolizing wildlife. The artwork has a raw, expressive quality with bold, sweeping brushstrokes.
