Bear in the woods! Our Redwood Print is based on an original painting by Annie, and beautifully captures the spirit of California. The bear, a symbol of California's wilderness, embodies resilience and untamed beauty, and she is right at home among majestic redwood trees and lush grass.
We can print up to 44” wide on most of our designs, so contact us for a quote if you need a specific size.
This print, and all the prints in the “I Love You California” collection, are inspired by a sheet music cover illustration from 1913 for the song, "I Love You, California.” In 1987, it became the official state song of California. Annie and Eric discovered the vintage illustration around 2010, and Annie started painting versions of it, surrounding the bear with floral patterns, forests, mountain scenes, geometric designs, etc. the paintings became so popular, we started offering prints of them.
Annie loves to draw and paint, and could easily do it for hours every day. She finds solace and inspiration on the canvas, and also gets through a lot of podcasts and audiobooks while wielding a brush. Her favorite paints are liquid acrylics by Golden, and she buys stretched canvas from Blick. Annie is the artist behind the “I love you California” collection, as well as the 49 Mile Drive collection and the Original Paintings collection.
I am a Californian native, and when I first saw our bear hugging our state, my heart melted. I ordered both the Redwoods and the Poppy versions to hang side by side. The quality of the work produced by 3 Fish Studios is outstanding. Could not be happier
Love it! Now that I’ve moved out of state, it’s the best reminder of home
I was so happy when I received my artwork. The colors are vibrant and the image is sharp and clear. I absolutely love my California bear with our gorgeous giant sequoias in the background. I also appreciate the reasonable price for such a beautiful piece of art.
