Bears symbolize courage and protection—qualities we often carry as women, which is why we call ourselves “mama bears.” I painted this bear as a quiet force of strength, paired with a small winged figure that, to me, represents an angel watching over what was lost.
Whether you see loss in this piece or simply the presence of something beyond understanding, may it be a hope-filled reminder to trust even when the path ahead feels unclear.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."
— Proverbs 3:5–6
