Bears at Cleveland Zoo painting by Hoeptner

Bears  Oil on cradled wood  8" x 8"  NFS
Two new subjects for me:  Bears and water.  Painting water is hard! Bears are fun though...you'll see more new subjects soon-These bears live at the Cleveland Zoo where I managed to shoot over 400 reference photos last week.   Don't know how I ever managed before digital cameras came along...  too much fun.
