I think we all can relate to that lying low feeling. With the pandemic, we've been in for the long haul, haven't we?! In this "Golder Bear Series" painting, our intrepid polar bear is resting. Polar bears are good at making themselves comfy on the tundra. They are masters at conserving their energy. Patiently they wait for the ice to form, so they can be on their way to travel, hunt and mate. Sound familiar?! Gold metallic paint symbolizes the wealth nature gives us. Blue is a world favourite colour for a world favourite bear. As well, blue is associated with nature, and symbolizes symbolizes intelligence & royalty, all of which applies to this magnificent marine mammal. The crackled texture of the bear’s fur reminds us of its vulnerability due to vanishing sea ice from climate change. This artwork is meant to be a little gem, reminding us of the treasure nature is. The sides are painted gold. It can stand on a table or shelf. It is not wired. Artist initials on the front. Full name and unique work completion number on the back. Certificate of Authenticity.
