Dancing Bears

In Tahoe we love our bears. Here are a couple of ways to incorporate bears into your interiors...

High End:

Isn't this cabinet from Ty Loyola charming?




Hand-carved and hand-painted Ty Lyola Dancing Bears Cabinet (for more information, click here)


Not everyone can afford this adorable hand-carved hand-painted custom-made cabinet, but if you can...this is the one to splurge on. I call this a room-maker! 48" wide x 36" high. $7950


"Low" End:

I spotted this piece of artwork by Cathy McClelland on a recent artists' tour in Tahoe. It's called Acceptance of Transitions.

Acceptance of Transitions by Cathy McClelland

The original painting was $3200 but you can order giclee's for as little as $150 (click here).

This charming painting reminds me so much of autumn on my favorite Blackwood Canyon hike when the Aspens are dropping their leaves. It looks just like this and the air and forest floor is filled with dreamy floating yellow polka dots as the leaves float to the ground. It always makes me feel like throwing up my arms and dancing, too.

Did you know there are many actual photos of bears raising their arms to the skies like this. It's true! I wonder if they are actually dancing, too...
