The Unfortunate Discovery – Original Oil on Canvas, 16 x 20 inch

Inspiration into this Painting: This piece explores the deep silence of the coastal wilderness, where human focus meets the calm presence of native wildlife. It portrays a quiet layout of mutual space shared with a mother bear and her cubs. The rich layers of oil paint hold hidden depths; look closely, and the quiet scenery reveals its secrets. As a physical bridge between the experience and the canvas, the prospector’s pan is textured with genuine gold flakes gathered by the artist in these very mountains.

About the Painting:  An original 16x20 inch oil painting on thing canvas. The edges of the canvas are one inch deep perfect for future framing or displaying as it. The edges of the painting are painted ivory black. The painting is wired and ready to hang, right out of the box. Signed on the front with the year of creation. Titled, year of creation and autographed on the back with indication of being original on the canvas. Additionally, the artwork comes with a serialized, signed Certificate of Authenticity. Note: Being a classical oil painting (and not acrylic) the final oil out and varnishing has not been applied; this would jeopardize the longevity of the artwork in the curing polymerization process. This will need to be accomplished by myself or another professional no sooner than 9 months after the purchase.  This will lock in the vibrant colors and protect the painting for multiple generations to enjoy.  Detailed care instructions are provided during this process.
