Eric Jones, President and Executive Director of the Volcan Mountain Foundation (which Anne Hubbell was a founding member of) works to preserve the unique ecological diversity of the Volcan Mountain range, a landscape that deeply resonated with artist James Hubbell. Nature, in its raw and untamed beauty, was a profound inspiration for Hubbell, frequently becoming the subject of his vibrant watercolors.
