Growing up with my dad, the grizzly bear has always been this important figure. My dad has always been this papa bear who is loving towards his little cubs, but also a fierce protector of them. He has always been so close with nature, and life, and has inspired me to live more slow.

Now that I have my own children, the grizzly bear has a new meaning to me as well. I am now a mama bear of my own little cubs, and I understand so much the love, and instinct to protect them at all costs. So this design is very dear to my heart, and I hope you enjoy making it.
