The Bear – Animal Series – Acrylic Painting

🍃 The Animal Series was born from a soulful journey through Washoe ancestral lands near Lake Tahoe. Each piece reflects the sacred energy of the animals that appeared in meditation and vision along the drive.

🐻 The Bear – painted by Washoe artisan Rev. Dr. Jackie Cope – represents courage, introspection, and grounding. Within Washoe belief, Bear is the keeper of dreams and the guardian of wisdom found within solitude. This painting honors the spirit of endurance, guiding its viewer to face life’s trials with balance and heart.

🌸 Painted on a flat canvas using acrylic paints, 20in x 16in. This original artwork radiates warmth, power, and ancestral energy, making it perfect for collectors of Native fine art or anyone seeking to connect with inner strength.
