These photos are not very good but I wanted to share my newest design, LULU. I thini my lighting is off on these photos... and too much fromt lighting.

She has a really nice feel and she sits with great "kerplunkity" and has a pot belly.  Her eyes are glass taxiermy bear eyes and she features needle felted and airbrushed details.  LULU is 14" tall. :)

She does not have the "Egyptian virus" in her right foot.  She is designed to have a pot belly and is loosley stuffed so her legs flop a bit and she hunches just a little when she is plunked down.  She sits really solid.

Lulu is one of my all-time favorite bears ! What a wonderfully cute little one ! Exactly the kind of realistic bears I'm found of !    
A true perfection !

Gorgeous work again, Judi - LuLu is a super design and very well executed!

Judi Feb 1, 2006

Thank you so much ladies.  I have to say Sue Ann, I LOVE your avatar...is that Shelli design?  Beautiful.

ANyway, the more I look at the first picture...eekkk..the more I don't like it.  Photography is an ongoing learning porcess for me.  I think I am getting a bit lazy using this black background. I think it works great for some bears...but not this one.  You shouldn't be able to see any of the background.  I think I will try this agian and change the photos. 

Thank you all for such nice comments! :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Oh my, Judy!  I'm so amazed and awed by your creativity and skill!  I suspect you're way to humble to realize this, but it's no exaggeration to say you're one of the best bear artists in the world.  Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!  :clap:

Hugs,
Lyn

Judi Feb 4, 2006

Thank you ladies!              

The first photo is an example of what NOT to enter into a competition!  It's a terrible photo even though it does show the bear's personality.

Julia, for now I am keeping Lulu but will be listing Chad on my website or ebay soon.  I have 6 lulu bears cut out in various mohairs.  Can't wait to get started.....

You guys are great!

Judi Feb 7, 2006
