I think for every bear artist comes time to make a clown – bear. It’s happend…Once I tried to make a bear – clown, bet it turned to a bear – girl with a ribbon and a ballet skirt bear_original This bear I wanted to make as a pilot, I even have made a pilot cap from leather… but he refused it. He has chosen to become a bear – clown
So, here I present to you – Charlie.
Charlie – is 10′ (without a hat) bear, made from special bear material – mohair, has 5 joints (one double for the head), German glass eyes, embroidered and waxed nose, stuffed with fiberfill, shaded with oil paint. Charlie wears a silk pelerine (aged with coffee and cinnamon) and a silk bow with rusty bells. His hat made from paper, cardboard with wodden horse – button and rusty bell.
