This painting is titled 'into the high country'.

It is finished in an abstract style using simple lines and bold colours.  A style I used in my earlier years of painting.

This painting may contain a message for you or not.  It could evoke different interpretations to others if any at all.

On the surface it has three friends heading for the high country.  Led by the fearless and strong Grizzly bear, gently navigating the way with intelligence and the unparalleled ability of scent.  Next comes the Caribou, standing taller that the bear with a keener sense of hearing and sight.  Extremely agile, able to turn to assist either one or to seek out a needed alternative route.

Following come the ever steady, stable and immensely strong Bison.  Older than his two friends and perhaps wiser.  An unquestionable ally to have looking after you, always ready to stand guard while the others might require rest.

Why are they travelling into the high country?  That is for your interpretation.

This painting is completed with acrylic on canvas.  Original art measuring 16x20 inches and is available for purchase for $225.

I am presently painting this scene on a much larger canvas.  Thank you for stopping by, JJ.
