Hi Everyone,

Since I adopted my first bear made by Janice McLeod (Jigpaws) at the September Hugglets show, I have admired her bears very much.  In the past months two more of Janice's bears joined my hug. 
When I last mailed Janice, she told me that it had been months since she had made a new bear  bear_cry .  So I'm hoping that these photos will get her creative juices flowing again and will get her back to bear making.  bear_thumb
I think it would be such a shame if her wonderful talent for bear making would go to waste.  bear_sad

So I would like to introduce to you my three Jigpaws-bears : Jasmine (with the red bow); James (in his old army uniform) and Jaffa.  I hope you like them.

Thank you for the photos, Peter!  bear_original

Janice does have a real talent for bear-making. The two smaller bears with their huge feet and soft expressions are very appealing, and James is simply magnificent. He's so handsome, and he looks as if he has a lot to say!  bear_laugh

Great photography, as usual!  :thumbsup:
I like the way you always use natural light.  Reminiscent of Dogme-95 except better because it's with Bears!  bear_original

I think I like Jaffa the best.
The way she did his/her? eyes are really nice. Gives a great expression to the whole face.
Lovely collection she has made for you. bear_original

Hey Janice, did you ever stop to think that the Bear in your avatar picture looks a lot like the "Teddy Bear 3000" who starred with Haley Joel Osmet in the Stephen Speilberg movie, "A.I."?
