My Bearmaking Habits

I find it interesting to hear about the habits of my bear artist friends..... so you make one bear at a time... or work on several at once?

As for myself....I often work on several at once.

Why???

I work on my bears at all hours of the day ... even 3 in the morning if I can't sleep ;) There are some parts of creating a new furry friend that I really need to be fresh.... particularly working on the face.

This is why it is hard for me to work on just one bear at a time until he or she has been born.... I like to have work ready to work on for when I just don't feel quite up to creating that new sweet face. Faces ARE my favorite part of bearmaking! But I've found they just do not turn out right if I am not in the right frame of mind.....

As you can see here.... I have a few bunnies and bears waiting to be born. 2 bunnies will HOPEFULLY be born soon! I have a few bears in there too.... waiting patiently as they will be going with me to Maine for a show in August...
