Florida After-image #6

Year: 2024
Dimensions: 12 x 12"
Medium: Acrylic on cradled wood panel

Artist Description of Work:
This Black Bear is part of a series which forewarns that the beauty of our world may only survive as an "after-image" if we close our eyes at critical moments and do not act to protect it. This was created in response to the "Bear Kill Bill" that was signed by DeSantis in 2024, putting our threatened Florida Black Bears in further peril.
