This is another bear that I did with a scene painted on his eyes. In this case it is the park. If you look closely you can see grass, sky and clouds reflected in his eyes.
This one my husband liked better because it was more subtle.
Thanks for looking!

Dont they say that the eyes are the mirror of the soul? (if anyone else has said this? my apologies but I havent read through all the posts).

  His eyes are gorgeous!  I wish I could get to Nevada City, I'd buy him in a heartbeat!!  What paints are you using?  I have some of the eyes that you can paint, but I've not had the time to do it.  I love him!!!           Wendy

Just beautiful!!    I hope to see one up close and personal one day soon.     The concept is very creative.  How long does it take you to paint those eyes?  Superb workmanship!  You are an inspiration to push the envelope and think outside the box.  Bravo!! 

Warmest bear hugs,  :hug:

Wow, thank you so much!

Wendy- I use acrylic paints and use nail polish as the final back layer (on Shelli's recommendation).

Aleta - these were the first eyes I made in this new style and it took a long time...mainly I think because I kept redoing them. I think the next ones will be faster.

Thanks again!
