The mighty bear wanders her damp spring environment, in constant surveillance of her cubs and surroundings. She is camouflaged on her vantage point, smelling, seeing and analyzing her environment. Bears are a solo species and despite their stature, their figures are often indistinguishable amongst the backdrop of a forest or river. Fluid washes of grey, yellow ochre, green-gold, and phthalo green throughout the painting instill the feeling of a mossy, damp, earthy environment.

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.
