Hi everyone!
This is little Flurry, a white mink baby bear I just listed on ebay for 7 days. This is my first attempt at painted eyes.  I LOVE the sparkly effect and the way she is "looking right at you".
I really appreciate the tips and learning about this technique from all of you here on TT.

Best Regards,
Lee Ann

I'm so sorry... I know I would feel terrible if it happened to me.
1.  What goes around comes around
2.  Now WE can all keep an eye out for him...'case they try to resell

Lee Ann

Brenda Your little bunny is precious !  You did REALLY well if this is your first attempt  :clap:
I tried a kitten but it came out looking like an alien.....back to my fur....
AND, I kept poking myself...

Have fun !
Lee Ann

The bunny and little quilt are SO precious.  Wonderful little guy 

Really, really nice  :clap:

Hello everyone
I have stuck with miniature bears for about the last 10 years.( 4 to 7" )
I did try larger bears at one time and found it so much more difficult to bring out the "expression" I wanted in the face.  I really admire artists who can do both  

I used to make ice skating costumes for teams and would have YARDS and YARDS of fabric and dozens of zippers, elastic, thread etc plus a HUGE mess in my sewing room.  When I discontinued that business and just focused on my bears, it was so refreshing to work with such small pieces of fabric.:)

I think it has been said many times above, do what you love to do but stretch yourself occasionally by trying something new.

Best Regards
Lee Ann

Wonderful little bear.  It's such a challenge to work so small.....
I tried once with a lighted magnifying glass that hooks to the work table?
I found myself holding my breath all the time so as not to fog up the glass

Didn't work out....

He is very, very cute
Sincerely
Lee Ann

Awesome presentation ! and a Beautiful bear

Regards,
Lee Ann

That face kills me   Like he's saying " Oh puhleeeez Mom, another picture????"
Very nice !

Lee Ann

I'm speechless - he is unbelievable...such a touching story and now you've forever captured it in your creation.  Brilliant !
