Art Painting--Polar Bear

 Art painting--Polar Bear  Artist: Martin Plant  ©2012

 I had a sheet of dark blue paper and I really wasn't sure what kind of picture I wanted to put on it. Basically I didn't want to lose the dark blue color because I found interesting. So, what picture to use it for? It took me some time to come up with a suitable picture idea.I was watching good old television one night--and there came my picture idea. I saw a white polar bear. Just the thing to put on dark blue paper!

I made a drawing of a polar bear, and in the background I added an iceberg. Then, above the iceberg, I added my signature, the three moons in progress, to give the picture a sort of spiritual look.The effect was just what I wanted. The bear and the dark background made a contrasty combination. The picture also showed the harsh living conditions for polar bears. When I finished the picture I was quite satisfied with it. I hope you like it too.
