Absolutely heartbroken 💔

Dr. Jane Goodall. You have inspired so many little versions of yourself all over the world. Rest in the shade of all the trees you have planted.

Sarah Hatton @sarahhattonartist.com · Jan 29

A career highlight! 🐝

Invited to meet Dr. Jane Goodall when she visited Canada’s Parliament, because of my Bee Works:

Sarah Hatton stands next to Dr. Jane Goodall, in a reception room at Parliament Hill. Hatton’s arm is around Dr. Goodall, who cradles a stuffed chimpanzee toy in the crook of her elbow. Hatton is beaming with joy at meeting her life long hero.

Don't forget the fabulous Canadian artist, @sarahhattonartist.com, who captures water so perfectly you believe the painting must be wet. 💙🌊
