I'm on the verge of eliminating all the bears but the front one.

What is your motivation for that?

I think it's a scaling issue. I may leave a couple of bears, th ecub-like looking ones...but I don't about the rest. They just aren't sitting right. what do you think?

They look like bears behaving as seals - I like it!

I almost think this painting will never be what you want it to be.

I'm not sure...I think the great thing about the bears and this painting are the details, the black bear lips, the hair lines, all show off the forground,..the bears in the background pale in comparison because they don't have anything that makes them stand out from each other or the background...sort of a mush of white and eyes.


What is this painting about? Maybe that will help you make a decision?

I'm thinking it just needs a bit more white.

"I almost think this painting will never be what you want it to be".

I've felt that way about every painting I've ever made. Painting is always a compromise between imagination and possibility/reality.

Well put David.
