Original artwork description:
Dive into this watercolor painting that captures the silent grace of a polar bear submerged in the vibrant turquoise and ultramarine hues of the Arctic seas. The contrasting warm and cool tones serve as a visual metaphor for the ongoing climate crisis, reminding us of the urgent need to protect these majestic creatures and their vanishing habitat._x000D_

Polar bears make shallow dives when stalking prey, navigating ice floes, or searching for kelp._x000D_
Polar bears usually swim under water at depths of only about 3-4.5 m (9.8-14.8 ft.). They can remain submerged for more than one minute._x000D_
Maximum dive duration is unknown; however the longest polar bear dive observed to date lasted a total of 3 minutes and 10 seconds covering a distance of 45 to 50 m (148–164 ft.) without surfacing._x000D_
No one knows how deep a polar bear can dive. One researcher estimates that polar bears dive no deeper than 6 m (20 ft.).
