"Old Growth" is a heartwarming sculpture carved from Australian green chlorite, depicting a serene mother bear with her playful cubs.

Measuring 15" x 10" x 11" and weighing 55 pounds, this piece exudes a sense of tranquility and familial warmth. The polished green chlorite brings a lifelike vibrancy to the bears, while the log they rest on is rendered with a softer, more muted finish, creating a harmonious balance. This sculpture, crafted in British Columbia, eloquently captures the nurturing aspects of wildlife and the deep connection between mother and offspring. In comparison to "Roaring Bear," which showcases raw power, "Old Growth" emphasizes the gentle, nurturing side of nature, showcasing the artist's versatility and depth in capturing the essence of wildlife.
