The Bear Mask



“This painting is oil on stretched canvas. The oil paint was applied thickly to create the grooved brush textured effect. The mask is an abstraction of a cave bear skull. As for the bear, I have always felt a kinship with the ursine. Maybe it is from being tall, wide shouldered, and cursed with a near constant five o’clock shadow. ” -Jason Arcand
