This a grizzly bear my wife had photographed on a family trip we took down to Seward. I love to paint wildlife and escape into their world while at the canvas. His playful behavior made you want to get a closer look; however, commonsense did prevail!
Matthew, I love the bear. I also want to apologize for not thanking you earlier for your comments after visiting my site, but I experienced for the first time my computer crash! I lost all, but today was able to get on line. Thanks again for your kind comments.
