- Biographical Information
- The image entitled *Stewardship* depicts a scene from the rain forest, a main source of our world nourishment, the air we breathe. Within this exotic scene the figures are scientifically exploring the bounty of the rain forest, signifying we are stewards and guardians of our planet and must take an active part in the conservation and protection of natural resources. The exotic animals, birds and the very forest itself are essential components in the balance of our fragile eco system and living jewel-like treasures in need of protection. (excerpt from Josephson artist statement, 2006)
