I love art in all its various forms, especially photography. My camera is truly an extension of myself and captures the way I choose to see the world. I hope to share and spread my vision, which is often described as being calming, peaceful, inspiring, uplifting, warm, meditative, dreamy, ethereal, and whimsical....

As a child I spent hours, sometimes an entire day, outside, roaming the nearby woods, streams and rivers. I brought home from these journey's little bits of nature. Pebbles, stones, leaves, turtle shells, bird's nests and even the occasional live frog or salamander. Nature was my first art teacher and remains the most influential to this day. As an adult, I'm still roaming the woods and bringing home bits of this and that in my pocket. I still sketch, but more often I paint in Acrylics and Watercolors. My favorite subjects are natural objects (no surprise there).

Hello! I'm Lindsay Bleier and I am the owner of White Bear. I am a professional actress and was born and raised in New York City. I moved to sunny Miami Beach about two years ago and haven't looked back since. I came up with the name White Bear after my little puppy, Chloe. She is a Bijon/Poodle and looks just like a little white teddy bear! She is like my daughter and I felt it only appropriate to name my creations after her. I have been designing my own jewelry for over 15 years. It originally started as just a fun hobby, but after many years of hearing lots of people complement my designs, I have decided to make these creations available to the world!
