Welcome to Crazy Bear Creations of the Adirondacks! Here, you will be able to view my metal sculpture and what I call ‘Nostalgic Adirondack crafts’! The smaller and medium sized 3-dimensional works are made of copper, brass and often stained glass incorporated designs. Each art piece has been flame-painted (colored by torch heat) and are often accented with various patinas where an entirely unique light-catching quality is achieved in your garden, home or office and they are designed to radiate beauty and last for generations to come.
My original wood-paintings capturing the essence of the Adirondacks are painted on tree rounds, aspen, pine or cedar and often incorporate wood-burned detail also known as pyrography. My vision here is to convey early Upstate NY camp decor with nostalgic colors and themes. They are simplistic, often cartoony and mostly humorous.
Large silhouettes are made of 3/4 plywood and come primed and painted black with premium outdoor paints. Taking them into the realm of art, my hand-painted line offers an exciting touch of realism to each piece! I call these ‘Rural Treasures’, because you will not find them in metropolitan areas whatsoever.
