db Waterman Profile picture Human-induced climate change intensifies the heaviest downpours. More than 70% of the Earth's surface is made up of water, and as the world warms, more water evaporates from oceans, lakes and soils. So when weather patterns lead to heavy rain, even more moisture is available for stronger downpours, increasing the risk and severity of flooding.

For this little boy it might still be fun to play in a heavy rain after a long hot summer day. But what will the future look like for him? What impact will climate change have on him?

I remembered that as a young girl I so much liked to cut images from magazines to paste them into school agendas, scrapbooks and even on my bedroom door. Add to this the fascination I always had for walls filled with old posters, flaking paint, scrappy billboards and weathered paint, it opened an unexpected door for completely new opportunities. Completely unintended I found a new way of working, I felt pleasurably and comfortably at home in. What started out as copying old walls with worn out posters has grown into many series of new visual storytelling. Not simply just eclecticism, but bringing together many seemingly incoherent story lines into one completely new story, my own personal story. Initially it lacked the one thing that is important to me, the transparency that normally only is possible with the use of watercolor. The unforgiving layering of transparent watercolors is a challenge I would not want to miss and after a lot of trial and error I finally succeeded in getting the collages as transparent as a watercolor. Every layer of paper, oil, acrylic, pencil, crayon, ballpoint, watercolor, ink, charcoal and whatever else I use, remains visible in the artwork. You can imagine it made me feel the queen of the ball !
