Hi guys,
Just wanted to share one of my latest bears with you. I am so pleased with the way he turned out - I think I am going to do a series of "Gentleman Callers"!

Anyway, This is Otis P Thurgood, and he is 12" tall. I made him from a velvety short pile mohair and he has a sculpted nose, leather eyelids and his face has been shaded with artist acrylics:)
Regards,
Christine

Oh my, Otis (you scoundrel!) . . . you shouldn't have! Those are my favorite flowers and you look stunning! Am I dressed okay for our date? I don't have a curfew, so we can stay out as late as we want! bear_whistle

Now, settle down, ladies!! Otis found a new home on Sunday, at the Hugglets show in London. But, in case there are any lovelorn females out there, I have almost finished #2 in the series, who will be appearing on Ebay shortly...
Hugs,

Christine, bear_flower
He's a charming gentlebruin to be sure! I'm not surprised he's already captured the heart of a bearmom. Superb idea.....a line of "Gentleman Callers". You've captured the spirit to perfection.

Warmest bear hugs, :hug:

Wow! What a stunner! And he has such a charming posture, too. Chris, this may be one of my favorite of your always-wonderful bears, yet! Do be sure to let us know when your next in the series is available. I might have to someone ferret out some fun money to toss your way!
