Howdy! Welcome ta Maw Bear's lil "Print" on the World! I'm a 'New' Outsider Folk-y self taught artist, n I paint on canvas, wood, tin, found objects, with mixed media, ie. acrylic, house paint, shellac, paper, flashmaster/tar...pretty much whatever I can get my hands on. I've been bottled up for years due ta losin my parents to drunk drivers when I was eleven, failed marriages, n a fear of getting out n the world n dyin which I just recently faced n am gettin over, sense having my baby, n watching a shown in which Mrs. Paula Deen talked about her agoraphobia. More about this on my site...She is a wonder to me. You can contact me at my main website www.mawbear.com I'm havin my first show this Feb 8 2008, at the Moonflower Gallery in Saluda Nc!!!
