As Boyertown's Bear Fever community art project looks to celebrate its 20th year, with over 90 sculptures painted by a variety of artists, artist Gina DeNave reached out in hopes a bear was available for her to paint. "Chomp" became her project and was completed in record time. 

Gina has participated in other community arts projects. One example is "King of the Jungle" for the Catskill Cats.
