BEAR CUB

BEAR CUB

C$79.00Price
This Black Bear Cub was spotted in a North Ontario Forest in the Spring. Black Bears are best avoided especially when they have cubs. This lovely cub looked just adorable which is why people are often attracted to them as cuddly big teddy-bears. If you spot one,  have a quick look and retreat from the area. Mother Bears are insanely protective of their young - and will not hesitate to attack any animal or human threat nearby!
The Frame is  7" x 7" square stained Hardwood. Round opening is 5" dia. Artwork is covered with a Clear Domed glass lens.
 
 
 

Giving rise to an idea for a carving can be a daunting experience. Whether you’re an Author, a Painter or any other creative pursuit a project has to begin with an idea! How does an artist generate an idea for a carving subject? Almost all of my inspiration comes from the natural world and I am equally delighted by all creatures, large or small. A small Hummingbird is incredibly beautiful as is North America’s largest deer, the Moose. The fragility of a small Butterfly must convey that delicate fragility in the carving in addition to the startling beauty of its design. The power and size of the Moose must also be expressed. The final piece may take days or weeks to complete and once completed, the wood must be sealed with a durable finish and left to cure in preparation for casting a mold. The sealing and painting process must not lose or diminish any of the fine details of the hand-carved original.
