This painting features an adult grizzly bear in the great bear rainforest. The grizzly is marching with a cadence that suggests this is a familiar mountain path, one it has travelled since it was a cub. Your eyes dance with the intrinsic movement of the painting. There is a fluid relationship between the bear, grass and sap green trees and the mountain range in the distance. The comforting blanket of fog transitions your eye towards the towering mountains which are reaching up and touching the sky. Earthy dense colours of brown, green and yellow are contrasted with the silky cerulean blues and steel greys of the mountains and sky.

Jeff Dillon the Canadian Artist, inspired by the bold colours and brush strokes of Post-Impressionist Artists. His unique style focuses on capturing light, not through the detail of realism, but with gesture, illusion, shape and colour. He offers a personal and distinctive style to the world through his bold use of colours and lines, often symbolic images or subject matter. Objects in the paintings retain their realistic appearance yet have a vibrancy and fluidity about them, unique to his work. Jeff Dillon’s new expression of Post-Impressionism is both beloved and revered in the Canadian and Global Contemporary Art World.
