Something a little different...

I was restless last night and felt like doing something different. I wanted to paint a pair of hiking boots, (BORING) so I thought I'd add an animal into the mix. First I thought of a squirrel or chipmunk but everyone has done that. Then I thought about chickadees, but that just seemed lame! Then, it came to me. I wanted a BIG animal that would have to be partly hidden from view behind the boots. I considered the draft horse on the farm across the road. Then I thought about a deer. But a BEAR just made sense. Bears come in silently and pop up where you aren't expecting. Surprise! Look who is in camp! So that is it. Here is step 1 of "Bear in Camp".
