Power in softness. This gorgeous bear reminds us of what a true apex or alpha means. In this world where "alpha" gets tossed around with many different and sometimes toxic meanings behind it, turn to a true conqueror of the forest. A true royal who knows only to fight when needed, only to hunt when hungry, only to roar when the occasion truly requires it, and to just know how beautifully strong you are without needing to prove a damn thing.
Welcome to the 148 Bear project. It’s an odd number right? In 2017 a bear I had grown quite attached to, called Bear 148, was shot by a hunter after a relocation to BC. She had gained quite a lot of notoriety for her familiarity with humans in the parks, roaming around Canmore and Banff, watching sports be played in the soccer fields. She had hundreds, literally hundreds of interactions with humans that were non-threatening, and was shipped off and then hunted. In my opinion Bear 148 is a symbol for our failure to interact with bears in any other way other than as a threat or as waste. Grizzlies are gorgeous, powerful creatures, and deserve to share the forests and land with both the respect and admiration that is due to them. I will be painting 148 bears, from Black to Spirit to Grizzly to Polar bear, because I feel like all these creatures speak to the critical state humanity has reached, regarding having a life of connection with the other creatures that bless us with their presence on this planet. Bear 148 was a gorgeous and peaceful bear, and she will be the 148th painting in this process.
This beautiful painting is sold, but is available in print, scarf, high quality paper print and also cushion.
