Jason Polan : Lions and Tigers and Bears

Jason Polan
Lions and Tigers and Bears

April 2012

“I have made a bunch of abstract drawings with oil stick for this art show. There are also drawings of plants. The show is called Lions and Tigers and Bears because I like the movie “The Wizard of Oz” and they say that together right before meeting the Cowardly Lion. Also, depending on how you look at them, some of the abstract drawings look like Lions and Tigers and Bears.” – Jason Polan
