Yes, I'd like to visit the moon, but I don't think I'd like to live there. Though I'd like to look down at the Earth from above, I would miss all the places and people I love. So although I might like it for one afternoon, I don't want to live on the moon.” (Ernie, Sesame Street, and Shawn Colvin) Not long from now, humans are planning to return to the moon. It’s also not impossible that humans might even go to Mars! This painting is about those of us who love to be home, both in the sense of longing to return to our houses after being away, and also in the sense of loving to be on Earth and be part of Earth, where our bodies came from and where they will return.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist Bio:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBerkeley lives in Austin, Texas where she paints, plays acoustic music with her sister and niece, and takes care of her dogs.
