"Bear"

6" x 8"

pastel on gatorboard

Bear - a symbol of courage, physical strength and leadership.

Mother Bear - the ultimate protector.

Sort of hit the wall today.  Not happy with the background.

Had it going, then 'noodled' it too much

and lost my chance of freshness.

Wiping it off, usually ruins it when I do it -

wiped it two or three times.

But, have to move on!

Thanks for looking!
