Portland-based artist Theresa Bear reveals the magic in her subjects through expressive portraits and botanical compositions. She describes her process as wild, messy, and full of emotion.
“This is a humorous and creative outlook on the process we go through in life to get to the spot where we are in full bloom. This was a self portrait of my best self, after my fall.”
“Through my own creating, composting, growing, blooming, and creating again I have learnt how to create my own healthy and unique ecosystem. I believe we are each such an unstoppable force of magic.”
“I’ve always been creating, making, and playing in nature. This is what slowly came out of me, a declaration to give voice to each person’s magnificence. Flowers are the ultimate magic to me. Who doesn't love flowers?”
