You may remember Bear, the beloved dog who became the unofficial mascot of our small town. Bear’s gentle spirit and presence brought smiles to everyone who crossed his path, and I’m honored to have captured his essence in a special painting.

We’re raffling off this original painting of Bear to raise funds for the Bedford Arts Collective — an organization that supports local artists through exhibition opportunities and helps bring fine art into our community.
