Nice to meet you! My name is Ryan Bear. I currently reside in Portland, OR with my wife, son, dog, rabbit and varies bug companions. I’m a visual storyteller with a focus on writing and illustrating picture books. I have an endless passion for pollinators. I’m my happiest sitting amongst flowers and plants watching the interactions of nature. I shamelessly cry during animated films. I’m a big fan of middle grade graphic novels, when I’m not delving into picture books of course. I’m a sucker for taking care of animals. Board games rule. My family and friends are everything to me.
