(2015)
Subject: Grizzly Dimensions (inches): 18 x 24 Medium: scratchboard/watercolor/oil glaze Description: The title refers to the return of the California condor from the brink of extinction. Due to a successful conservation program of breeding these birds in captivity and then reintroducing them to the wild, their population has grown from 22 in the '80s to over 300 birds currently. Grand Canyon National Park is one of the places where these incredible birds - the largest in north America - can still be seen. The original is currently for sale at the 5th annual Grand Canyon Celebration of Art. As a fundraiser, 50% of all sales goes to the Park.
