This is a happy-go-lucky bear that forced his way into a bear box, pulled out a bottle of wine, and is enjoying it. It is a fun way to display a nice bottle of wine (or beer!) on your table for parties or everyday. The bottle is not included. While not exactly encountering him in the wild, Terrence and his wife had to be prepared for one like him. While camping at Yosemite National Park in 2012, one of the major concerns was keeping the bears out of their stuff, which included some wine. Bears have very keen noses, rivaled by their curiosity and strength, and are apt to dig into your food, cosmetics, candy, or anything else that smells interesting. And they will also rip the doors off of cars in pursuit of the source of that olfactory sensation. Hence the invention of the "bear box". Basically a strong metal box with a latch that only a human could open, campers have to place their smelly goodies in these boxes while not in direct possession of them. The frequent trips to the bear box to retrieve and store their things became a pain and a source of amusement for them, and so the inspiration for the sculpture.

Sculptor...Photographer...Visual Effects Artist As a Visual Effects Artist for over a decade, Terrence Robertson-Fall is a Lead Character/Technical Animator at Sony Pictures Imageworks. He has created characters starring in films including The Amazing Spiderman 2, Oz The Great and Powerful, The Smurfs, and Alice in Wonderland. After spending years sculpting digital horses, smurfs, dogs, cats, wings and people, Terrence found that he needed to express his own ideas and thoughts in sculptures that could live outside of the big screen, off of the paper, bronzes that could occupy the world with us. Terrence has taken his creativity and combined it with his love of animals and thrown in a healthy dose of humor and play. Different perspectives help us see ideas in a different way, much the way animated movies do, so the animals in his sculptures often express human emotions and characteristics. Each one is telling a story, just as rich and animated as the characters he created for film. They illustrate positive ideas, adding some magic to our lives.
