Own a piece of art that captures a piece of the wild!

Maggie Oso the Black Bear resides at the Living Desert Zoo and Gardens State Park in Carlsbad, New Mexico. Like many animals living at this facility, Maggie cannot survive alone in the wild. She was rescued and now receives behavioral enrichment through a unique hobby—painting! Her paw-paintings are sold at the park.  For a limited time, one of her paintings is available for auction!

This piece features an impressionist paw print surrounded by splashes of teal, royal blue, orange and red. Bits of organic material are scattered across the painting. Maggie’s artwork is mounted in a sky blue mat. Don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind item!
