Imaginary Realist Robert Bissell (American, b. England 1952) derives his inspiration from the animal world. Much more than portraits of rabbits, bears, and elephants, Bissell's paintings are allegories for the challenges and discoveries all living beings encounter. They are invitations to learn more about ourselves and to reflect on life's transitionsbirth, departing from the safety of family, death, and making our way in the world.
