This was inspired from a project in college we did during a photoshop tutorials class. We were given this teddy bear sitting on a bed that needed color adjusting. It was cute and fuzzy came to mind not too long ago during my time painting Green Man after John Howe, Perched, Mushroom Sprites, and Dreamcatcher. I started a painting and put him on a bed with a yellowish wall (I'm very much into yellows right now and may pump out a yellow based painting soon...) but was very unsatisfied with it - as it also covered the whole canvas...so I pitched it and started over! I'm very happy with this one now .

This is regular acrylic on regular brownish/off colored canvas which serves as a bg (the wall) for the pick. After getting the cute fuzzy bear down, I put a brown down to keep with the earthy tones of the picture, and decided to make that a work tool bench much like my dad had at our old house a couple years ago. I added tools randomly hanging above it and almost did a window but decided against it. I did end up adding some color in the spools just for some pop .

I am currently looking to use this as an illustration for a writer's book. I can also create a suitable back cover if needed.
