Description
Everything I do is from personal experience, whether it means working with a live bear as a model or waiting for the perfect last glowing light of the day, as was the case with ‘Above the Falls.’ What drew me into composing ‘Above the Falls’ was the incredible perspective of the stream and how it moves to a small focal point. Any number of subjects could have worked in this dramatic setting, but the lumbering bear seemed a perfect candidate. My hope is that the authenticity that went into creating this canvas would be felt by the viewer.
