We watched this black bear rummaging around up on the mountainside most of the day, then in the evening he began to work his way down the hill toward us. We realized he wasn’t interested in us, but after gorging all day with pine nuts scavenged from squirrels caches and eating grubs and any other goodies he could find he was very thirsty and was headed down to the waterfall below us on the hillside. He past us only yards away where I got this view of him.

I’m thinking of eventually doing a full body image on a larger scale, but of course that will require a lot more time than a small daily painting such as this. If anyone is interested in a larger view, let me know. He was one of the largest black bears I’ve seen.

This is the final and finished posting of “Bighorn in Twilight”. I’m posting the finished image here with the three step-by-step progress images below for comparison. You can read about the steps in previous postings below. Because of the twilight colors the painting has very subtle tones that may be hard to see on your computer screen. Clicking on the image for a larger view may help but will likely not give the full range of colors in the painting. Thanks for following the development of this image and waiting for the finished work.
