Description: How about more tribal art? Like with so many of the tribal animals I have drawn in the past, I have developed a new way that is easier for me to make patterns for tribal art and tribal tattoos. With this lesson I will be filling a request for me to do a tutorial on "how to draw a tribal bear", step by step. Some animals of our world have special meaning to Native Americans of American history. A few well known species that where often talked about was eagles, wolves, horses, buffalo, and of course bears. Other animal species are also known with the native people, but the ones I listed have always been the most prominent of their history, and even with the times of today. I had a lot of fun making this bear because it was a challenge for me to conjure up the idea. I always look for inspiration in other places when I need to create something totally new. I think you will enjoy drawing a tribal bear because it is an odd animal to transform into tribal art. Thanks guys and peace out.
