ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY ~ WIDE ... a reminder

Where there was once a WIDE expanse of ice mass the latest climate changes have contributed to massive melting.


The polar bear is now on the threatened species list. Global warming can be such a bummer.

Nice one Ginger. Looks like your bear has some eye sense. : ) Always wear those sunglasses.

I like the "oil painting" look you acheived.

Gosh! They (or we?) may get drown one day!

The bear is beautifully done, I like the background scene as well. Great colors render.

Thoughtful post and love that stylin' bear. I'd really like to be able to say "the future's so bright, he had to wear shades,"
