Bear & Me

Me & Bear is a one-off original pastel artwork inspired by a beautiful photograph taken by a friend of her little girl while on holiday. There was something about the quiet simplicity of the moment that stayed with me—the innocence, the stillness, and the sense of pure childhood joy.

Created in soft pastels, I loved working into the gentle textures and tones of the image, letting it build slowly as the scene came to life. I was especially drawn to the emotional connection between Lola and her teddy bear, held close as she stood in the shallow waters, completely lost in her own little world.

Presented in an off-white 5mm gutter mount, the artwork measures 39cm x 39cm overall and is supplied mounted but unframed, ready for you to choose a frame to suit your own style and home.

It’s a tender, nostalgic piece that I hope brings a sense of warmth and sentiment to whoever welcomes it into their home.
