Polar Bear

[Ellen Easton]

I think I posted this on Wet Canvas but I'm kind of proud of having managed to paint a white bear on white paper so I'll post it here, too. It's not perfect but I learned a lot in doing it.

You did well. Shading a white object is difficult if you’re going to keep it looking white.

Thank you. I gave it to one of my neighbors who had told me that when he was young, he went polar bear hunting.

White is achromatic......except to us painters. Nice WC, l like the subtle color.

It looks cold. Brrrrrr!

Using values to paint the bear was a good idea! Nicely done.

Good one!

Love how its expression makes it feel intimidating to me, just as it most probably is in real life

Well done with shading the white bear.
