Alaska presents a rich and diverse ecosystem unlike any other in the world. The icy peaks and frozen rivers not only showcase stunning landscapes, but they also harbor many amazing species. From the quiet and powerful moose to the howling wolf, legendary bear and many more, wildlife in Alaska is truly special. Dot Bardarson presents these amazing animals in vibrant color and imaginative composition through her unique Alaskan watercolor art.

Unlike many areas throughout the world, much of the Alaskan countryside remains untouched, letting the many beautiful animals roam freely. Even so, residents and visitors alike often cross paths with these creatures, from moose crossings to sled-dog trails. Whether you are returning home to the contiguous states or you are coming back to your home in Alaska, you can bring these wonderful animals with you.

Find your favorite animal and a special piece that catches your eye. Contact Dot Bardarson to learn more about any piece or purchase your Alaskan watercolor print online today.
