About this work

This painting shows a city street from a high angle, with tall buildings lining both sides. A giant bear’s head looms in the foreground, its fur rough and textured. The street below is busy but quiet—people walk in small groups, and store signs like "Delicias" are lit up. The bear feels out of place in the urban scene, almost like it belongs in a forest. The artist used thick brushstrokes to make the bear’s fur look real and rough. Look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
