Looking Back Oil on Canvas 6 x 6

   This painting done with oil over a magenta acrylic underpainting is of a brown bear in the wilds of Alaska, heading into the brush when something, but not the viewer, causes him to glance backward. It is autumn with golds and reds contrasting with the green conifers. The boulder at ground level is covered with a light covering of snow adding contrast to the scene. A deep edge gallery wrapped canvas the scene continues onto the sides.
