Black Bear, Black Bear what do you see?

I paint things I get passionate about. They are mostly animate objects like people or animals. I love landscapes and flowers and really admire someone who is able to paint these with an atmosphere, yet I always return to represent someone with a pair of eyes.
My interest is in what you feel, but mostly in trying to imagine what and how you see. Do we see the same thing or is it totally different because of the different perspective? How?
