Mariana is a vital part of a broad and dynamic network of international women artists who are actively exploring and expressing the rich diversity of life through various forms of art.

Imagine a reforestation revolution ignited by the shared creativity and courage of a global network of millions of women.

TreeSisters are planting over a million trees a year, and they are now calling for women to plant a billion trees a year, by becoming a treesister and contributing monthly to tropical reforestation.
