Theresa Bear

Conceptual & Botanical Portraiture

Theresa identifies as a queer neurodiverse artist who loves her camera, and to create with her imagination.

She believes everyone should have access to art and nature.

And is a human with the last name of an animal she aspires to be (Bear). Her dog is named after the stars (Star) and her baby Oak is named after a tree. She married her partner in the same Redwood forest that showed her what home is.  Her work, life, and understanding of the World is inspired by the magic of nature on Earth.  You will always see flowers in her work or pieces of nature because….

Theresa believes there is a connection and language older then time between us humans and the Earth that is always whispering in our ears, “we belong to each other.”

She strives to find, create, and tell the tales of this magic in each of the art pieces she makes.
