This circular artwork features a large bear rendered in traditional Northwest Coast Indigenous formline style. The bear is depicted in profile, walking across the foreground with a powerful stance. Its body is composed of bold black outlines filled with striking red and white patterns, characteristic of this artistic tradition. The bear’s eyes and joints are highlighted with distinct circular and ovoid shapes.
Positioned behind the bear is a dark, silhouetted forest line set against a soft blue sky. Arching prominently over the entire scene is a large, radiant rainbow. This celestial element is divided into distinct, stylized bands of color—red, orange, yellow, green, and deep violet—each decorated with repeating, carved-like formline motifs that echo the aesthetic of the bear below.
The overall composition balances the grounded, grounded presence of the bear with the ethereal arc of the rainbow above. The background transitions from a shadowy, textured gray earth in the lower section to a bright, clear blue sky in the middle. The color palette is vivid and high-contrast, utilizing primary and secondary hues that stand out against the deep black of the bear's formline. The style is illustrative and graphic, emphasizing clean lines and symbolic representation of wildlife and nature.
