Grizzly In Mist

one of my first oil paintings around 2004, a copy of John Seerey-Lester painting...reminds me of my trips to Hallo Bay in Alaska where you get up close and personal with the bears! Thanks for the look!

Re: Grizzly In Mist

oh, what a frightening experience it must be. Your painting is so beautifully rendered that I had to calm myself first, that it is not a real situation I'm facing I like it very much!

Wow Dan! This is powerful. Love the mist, and the branches in the foreground too!

Re: Grizzly In Mist

Hi,
I like how you have the grizzly in the background and you get the feeling he is going to spring up quickly on you, sneaks up from nowhere!

Nice job!!
Kathy
