About the Item
Artist Comments
I painted this piece after visiting the bears at the San Francisco zoo. The two grizzlies arrived there as wild cubs and I have watched them grow up into beautiful, powerful adults. I wanted to use simple lines to suggest the grizzly bear's natural habitat. The colors used highlight the changing colors in the bear's coat and reference the beautiful hues of the American Southwest, where bears are a powerful totem in numerous Native American tribes. Watercolor on 300lb Arches paper. There is a 0.5 border around the edges for easier framing. Size of the artwork image is 14x18.

- Dragonfly and Port Wine Magnolia, Original PaintingBy Catherine McCargarLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Artist Catherine McCargar displays a scarlet dragonfly landing on the branch of a magnolia bush. She captures the fleeting moment as it sips nectar from the flower. Its red wings match the fully bloomed magnolia, fittingly complementing the verdant green leaves. Catherine effectively uses organic curved lines to draw the viewer's eye through her intricate arrangement of buds, blooms, and leaves.About the Artist
