What makes this piece extraordinarily unique is its material integration: the artist incorporates actual earth, sand, and mineral soils collected from specific geographic sites around the world—meticulously documented on the back of the canvas. 

Provenance locations include Wyoming (Jackson Hole), Colorado (Steamboat, Elk River), New Mexico, Texas, Mississippi, Tennessee (Wears Valley / Little Pigeon River), North Carolina (OBX, Cherokee), Georgia, Florida, and even a southern quarry in Apt, France. 

Featuring tactile, heavy-textured impasto and three adorable black bear cubs crossing a scenic mountain stream under warm autumnal tones, this signed original is housed in a rustic, custom-crafted rough-cut poplar gallery frame and comes equipped with a secure wire hanger, ready to hang. A true conversation piece for any cabin, lodge, or nature-inspired gallery wall.
