Winter King
My attempt at illustrating the plight of polar bears – and the effect that global warming is having on them. You may be able to see the earth within it’s hair, circled by other animals.
I’m trying to show, that although these majestic animals may be the only ones that are being affected by global warming at the moment, that won’t last long. We are all in this together.

This is very beautiful, incredibly powerful… it will be a sad day indeed if we lose these special creatures. We’ve lost too many species to extinction already, with too many threatening to follow suit.

I agree, thanks for taking the time to look at this piece.

It’s pretty sad that we’re going to have to add the polar to the same list as the Amur tiger, Amur leopard, etc, one day. We seem to be loosing many of our iconic animals. Still, really nice illustration to get the message across :)
Jezhawk replied
thankyou, yes it’s a subject that has always been very close to my heart, perhaps I will do those other endangered species in the same manner some day.
