Growl - The Polar Bear Painting of the Day
Here’s Portrait 2 of the Mini Polar Bear Portrait Series
Growl
A miniature portrait of a big bear in bright light, but his mood? Maybe not so sunny. The light reflects nicely on those big teeth, don't you think? This portrait may be little, but the might of this highly intelligent polar bear, top arctic predator, is still evident!

Sun Halo Cub 2
The gold in this painting symbolizes the richness of our planet and the power of the sun. Halo-like the sun appears behind this cub. Perhaps, we should be regarding our connection to nature as more holy.
The curvy shape behind this little bear represents the ice on which the polar bear is so dependant upon for survival.
And the baby blue? Perhaps it is about innocence, or water.. But maybe I was providing a little sibling for Polar Bear No. 15 (December 15th). :D

Earth Bear 1
This polar bear painting celebrates polar bears and the connection we all have to the earth. This little bear looks quite amused and quite cute with a flower growing on its head, but, I think it would be better is tulips can’t grow in this polar bear’s environment.

Bright in the Night Special offer
(valid until December 31, 2020)
Yesterday, I watched a live stream with Polar Bears International. Sunniva Sorby & Hilde Fålun Strøm of Hearts in the Ice were the special guests.
Bright in the Night. ©Christine Montague ChristineMontague.com Please see original below for painting without text.
For the 2nd winter in a row, these remarkable female citizen scientists, are inspiring active engagement around the climate crisis because of their stay at Bamsebu , a tiny cabin located in extreme isolation on the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard, about 78 degrees north of the Arctic Circle.
Right now, and for the next 3 months, they are experiencing the“Polar Night”, 24 hours a day they must navigate their surroundings in complete darkness. Polar bears are their nearest neighbor and they must always be on their guard.
I hope for their sakes, that a polar bear, bright in the night, is never a close as it is in this artwork!
In summation, this is a black and white portrait of a colourful bear. His textured white fur is bright , and his intelligence is, too.
This is an original acrylic painting on a 4” x 4" x 1.5 " wood panel.
The edges are a medium grey. It is signed, has a unique work completion number on the back , and is supplied with Certificate of Authenticity. It is perfect for standing on a shelf or table. To hang on a wall, simple put two push pins or two small nails and the inside edge will hang from it. .

Why is a Polar Bear like a Marshmallow? See Dec. 9 Polar Bear Art Advent Calendar
A marshmallow is a concoction that is both, sweet, solid and soft. I think this perfectly describes a polar bear cub, don’t you? It takes a cold heart to not acknowledge a polar bear cub is pretty darn adorable. Those solid little paws, fluffy, dense fur, bright little coal eyes and nose. Let’s not forget, its intelligence and strength, needed to survive the many challenges ahead.

This little bear is is on a metallic silvery mauve background, keeping the colours cool, and yet warm, re[presenting its youth and innocence, too.

Ghost Bear Baby Makes an Appearance in the Polar Bear Art Advent Calendar
Ghost Bear Baby
Like a spirit, a beautiful polar bear cub appears in the darkness, spotlit by the arctic moon. You don’t need to see every little detail painted to know how thick its insulating coat is, how fluffy its ears, how bright and intelligent are its eyes.
What is this beautiful, intelligent little cub thinking? Is it about to pounce in play? Is it you it is looking at? Where is his mom? Hopefully, not behind you!
All polar bear portraits, no matter the size, are either from my imagination or inspired by photographs I have taken.
The edges of this acrylic painting on 4" x 4" x 1.5 " wood panel are a dark grey. The painting is signed by me, comes with a unique work completion number and a Certificate of Authenticity.
