Item Description
Bear Description: During the Bear Fest Unveiling Celebration we overheard someone describe From Ribbons to Thorns as “simply exquisite” and we have to agree. Sparingly covered with realistically painted birds on a light blue background, the beauty of this bear is truly in the details. From the ruffled feathers of the snowy egret, to the shiny black eye of the ruby-throated hummingbird, Barrett’s paint brush elegantly captured each bird’s unique characteristics to create a beautiful and cohesively rendered masterpiece. Each bird selected is indigenous to the Pioneer Valley. This bear would be at home in any garden!
