Description:
This Spirit Bear was photographed by Bill Cubitt from Calgary, Alberta. Bill gave me permission to paint this bear asking me to keep the scratch just under his left eye. Even though this painting portrays strength and power, his face shows us his tender side. Bill was standing 3-4 ft away from this bear, so close he could actually smell him. I enjoyed painting "Spirit Bear". helping me to have greater respect for wildlife.
