Collection: Mother Bear series

During the summer of 2015, I had the great fortune of spending time with the brown bears of Halo Bay in Katmai National Park, Alaska. I spent an entire day in the company of bear techs, park rangers and about a dozen resident brown bears in the Halo Bay vicinity. At fairly close range we observed their daily rituals of feeding, socializing, napping and wandering about. A highlight moment for me was observing a female with two cubs clamming on the beach and later playing in a nearby meadow. Shortly after this experience the 'Mother Bear' series of original acrylic paintings began.   ~ Sue Dranchak
