A Ride in the Park! Latest creation for the Teddy Bear Artists' Invitational show in Binghamton, NY on August 16-18, 2012. The bear limbs are armature created for pose-ability; hands and fingers are found on the trike driver. Lady bear is made from upholstery mohair and costumed with soft white cottons, tulle skirting; decorated with pink roses, small rhinestone teddy pin, vintage "purse". The hat is vintage feathers with gathered ribbon and other florals. Mr. Trike driver is made from upholstery velvet and costumed in vintage wool pants and hat.

I've been trying various techniques with the "open mouth"....some are more successful than others. BUT these guys are depicting a HAPPY DAY with a ride in the park. A One-Of-A-Kind piece @ $275.00
