Just over 2 years ago, a lovely customer asked me if I could make her a Goth Bear with black and white striped tights and purple hair. I thought she was insane. :) I thought it was so far from my "style" that I couldn't do it. I think my dad and I had a good laugh at the thought of me even attempting it!
It just goes to show you... I don't think I've had so much fun while working on a bear before. It was so different from my usual bears and it stretched my imagination and forced me to learn new skills and techniques to complete it. I loved making him. My dad made the coffin... I couldn't get my head around the angles!
A couple of days ago I turned him into digital artwork. I work in a couple of different art program's which I will tell you about another time, this was a screen shot of him in the making... (Albeit almost done at this point.)
And then a matching birthday card was made...
They would make a nice alternative birthday gift set. :)
The next day I made this one...
Which I think also makes a lovely print! I will make different colour options for this one soon.
It's been nice to revisit some old favourites, I hope to get everything covered eventually so that no one is left out. :)
You can see both these prints and many others on my website.
Thanks for reading,
