CHillieCHillie the polar bear

NEW! CHillie has a coloring book all her own!

Meet CHillie, my NEW favorite nine foot polar bear (who doubles as a bench!) The theme I created is Bearly Chestnut Hill, featuring lots of weird little scenes in the neighborhood...and beyond.

Here's a short photo film on my blog of the process of painting CHillie.

I painted my first polar bear, Seemore, in 2006 for the first AbZOOlutely Chestnut Hill project. Watch the video of me creating the Seemore mural at the Eye Institute of Philadelphia in Spring of 2011. You can meet Seemore and see his work-in-progress here.
