Grizzly Bear Fine Art Print

This grizzly bear fine art print is a reproduction of one of my most challenging drawings to date. I have always been intrigued by grizzly bears, but I also find them rather scary. I had to write a research paper if a grizzly and male lion got into a fight who would win. So I wrote a 5-page paper on each of their weaponry, fighting techniques and stamina so perhaps that has something to do with it. Needless to say, I would hate to see such a fight actually happen. But they are stunning creatures, and I plan on heading out to Alaska to spend some time with them.

Here are some Grizzly Bear Interesting Facts
