bear

Point Grey

poles are carved from durable red cedar, lasting 50-80 years...paints originally came from natural materials, such as haematite for red and carbon for black...the face here represents the bear, symbol of strength and leadership

I like how we can see one pole up close with great details and the other pole that shows so much of the carving.
