Mr. Micawbear

micawbear

This is Mr. Micawbear, so named after Wilkins Micawber a fictional character from Charles Dickens novel ‘David Copperfield’. He stands just a tiny 13 cms high. I created him from mohair, his eyes are made of glass and he has a lorikeets feather in his hat. Once I’d finished making his Dickensian hat the name just fell into place. His face will look so cute on a greetings card design.

Barnaby

Meet Barnaby, he’s one of my older bears and is actually the first bear I designed and made myself. I’ve recently been attending bear making classes to improve my bear making skills so I can make the bears, draw them, and then use the drawings and photos of them in card designs etc. When created, each individual bear has it’s unique own character.

While I was at this weeks class run by Kympatti Bears Australia (an internationally respected bear maker located on the Gold Coast) an idea was tossed around about designing a Wild Witch Bear. Needless to say, I’m really excited about that!
