This is one of a series of bear paintings that stretch right back through my career as an artist. Has reminded me that I haven't done one for a while. Bears usually appear in my paintings when I am troubled bu something, as guardian spirits. Last night I dreamed of hares.
I was not much into hares, but you and Hannah Willow have converted me. Your white bears remind me of Iorek Byrnison who befriends Lyra in "The Golden Compass" film. Sam Elliott's (my favorite actor) character had a hare for a "daemon" in that film.

This is so very beautiful; the room does justice to your wonderful art.
ReplyDeleteI meant to ask ...is this art piece in one of your books and, if yes, which book please?
