About me:

Hi, I’m Bear, a 27-year-old mixed media artist based in Los Angeles. My artist statement is below, so I’d like to use this space for a more personal introduction.

I grew up in New York City and moved to Los Angeles in 2021. In 2023 I graduated from The School of The Art Institute of Chicago, where I did most of my studies online (after the pandemic).

When I’m not making art, you’ll usually find me watching a women’s soccer game, practicing aerial silks, exploring a museum, or building and rearranging furniture- as you might guess I kind of love interior design ;). A few other favorites: road trips, iced lattes in EVERY season, journaling, hearts of palm (weird but they’re the best), and my two daughters, Koda and Basil…yes they are dogs.

Thank you for visiting my website. Follow along on Instagram, and please reach out! I’d love to create something for you!
