What comes to your mind when you hear the words
Nature, Woods, Scenic Parks, Camping, Forest,
and the Outdoors?

Perhaps you will think of tall dark green trees,
deep crystal clear lakes, warm camp fires, roasting
marshmellows, wild flowers, and also those little
creatures who make nature their home--such as birds,
squirrels, and black bears.

Below is a picture of one of
Ruth Rumney's Original Acrylic Paintings
of a Black Bear.

The American Black Bear is the most common bear species
native to North America. It lives throughout much of the continent,
from northern Alaska to Mexico and from the Atlantic Ocean to the
Pacific Ocean. This includes 41 of the 50 U.S. states, all Canadian
provinces, except Prince Edward Island and some parts of Mexico.
(Wikipedia, n.d.)

Populations in the Southern United States remain in the protected
mountains and woodlands of parks and preserves, though bears will
occasionally wander outside the parks' boundaries and have set up
new territories, in some cases on the margins of urban environments in
recent years as their populations increase. Unlike its cousin the brown
bear
, the black bear evolved in North America. (Wikipedia, n.d.)

Unfortunately, one can't always be in nature to enjoy
its breath-taking beauty, so instead, have your own
nature sanctuary in your home by displaying beautiful
artwork of nature and animals!

One such artist on eBay who loves to bring animals and nature
ALIVE with Realism Art and Fantasy Art is Ruth Rumney.

Ruth Rumney is noted as an Adirondack artist who has been
depicting nature and fantasy paintings for over fifty years!
Primarily known for her oil canvas and canvas board paintings
that grace collections across the United States and Europe.

Ruth Rumney has been profiled in ADIRONDACK LIFE and the
subject of an upstate PBS ART EXPRESS documentary. Under her
brush animals, birds, landscapes, by gone eras, and images
such as mermaids
that dwell only in fantasy come alive!

Ruth Rumney was was born in 1922 in Westport, New York on the
shores of Lake Champlain. At the age of eight she discovered
her natural artistic talent. Her only formal training was a few
lessons with a family friend who ran the lighthouse on the lake.

Growing up in the depression, she made due with the only resources
available to her sometimes painting on cans and old wood-to this
day she continues to paint on weathered barnwood--mostly animals
in flowers.
She is primarily known for her canvas oil paintings
of landscapes and fantasy paintings.
In her eighties, she still
paints daily creating new wonders.
