5 New Polar Bear King Paintings

Polar Bear Gold

Although I usually paint in oils, I like to take a break now and then to play with acrylics. I enjoy revisting my Polar Bear King theme, and creating new stories about the polars bear’s majesty in black, gold and acrylic paint. I impose some pretty human feelings to these little portraits, but, that’s the human way, isn’t it?! But no matter the scene, our mighty hero is always in his rightful place of apex figure of the North.

The gold paint represents the treasure our polar bear is. The stylized sun, and its position in relation to the bear, speaks to the suns power and our warming climate.

Each painting is 6”h x 12” w black, white and metallic gold on canvas. Wired and Ready to hang.

At approximately 12" wide, the polar bear paw width is the same height as the paintings below.

In Paws Pause, (info here) a handsome polar bear pauses on its solitary journey in the arctic night. What does it sense out there in the dark? Its sensitive nose can pick up scents from over a kilometre away. And its round, furry ears hear better than ours. Then….
