Beautiful, Paula. I've been wanting to make a purple bear for a friend. Her mother just loved purple. It's a beautiful mohair. Would you share the quality/color with me?

I think he looks very striking and handsome indeed. I haven't been brave enough yet to experiment with vibrant colours, however after seeing your fabulous bear I think I will be less conservative in the future!  :clap:

Hi Paula,
That is one striking colour indeed!  :dance:   But as I am an avid lover of the colour purple you won't get any negative comments from me. As usual this is a real All Bear again, another cutey!
Didn't you have any problem getting the purple of this bear right in the pictures you made of him? That is: is the on-screen colour the same as the bear's colour? (and I'm not referring to colour variations due to screen settings).  I find it quite hard sometimes to get blue, purple and violet tones correctly on screen.
Anyway, I think you've done a great job again  bear_thumb . Congrats!  bear_flower 

Hugs,
Marianne

I think he's just gorgeous!  I love his open mouth and the color variations of the fur.  Just lovely.

Well thank you all very much! I sometimes wonder how the more unusual colour bears will be received, so it's great to have such positive feedback! bear_thumb  bear_flower

Marianne, I know what you mean about getting the colour to represent accurately on screen, but I am happy with these pics as the colour is pretty accurate ... I used a Canon 400D digital SLR camera and I'm usually very happy with the results.

He is just gorgeous Paula.  That colour is stunning and the contrast in the muzzle just sets him off perfectly.  Your bears have such joy in their faces that I think they would look wonderful in any colour.

Hi Paula, bear_flower

Your bear looks gorgeous, and I love the colour.  I am a lover of purpley colours anyway and think your use of pink and white with it looks nice and helps to tone down the intensity of the purple.  I was going to use this same mohair myself as I do recognise it, but guess I won't be now!!  (Back to the drawing board!!) Ha!       

I love all your open mouthed bears, instantly recognisable as an All Bear!

Hugs
