Bear Motif

Simply put, a motif is any decorative design or pattern. However, this is no simple work of art. The bear could’ve been portrayed as aggressive with his teeth out or prowling around his natural habitat. Instead, he appears to be calm and focused on something…which makes him even more dangerous. One might also detect a hint of pride from this image as well due to our friend not displaying any clear emotion. The wreath and shield wrap around the bears head in a way that makes it pop out even more than you’d initially think. Such beautiful work deserves a front and center placement so that everyone can enjoy it!
