Bagel the Bear dog
Hand Dyed Rainbow Bears
are in Rainbow section
Created for Bob an American living in France this creature is so full of character and so very, very mischievous as you can see from the pictures kindly supplied by Bob
Bagel was one of my bigger, much more weighty creations
Designed from conversations and a drawing provided by Bob he was created using beautiful long pile tipped mohair for most of the body with a shorter tufted pile to his tummy and parts of his face.  While he growls most of his tummy was filled with elastomer pellets making him nice and squidgy, there is also an extra neck joint so he can look at whatever is going on, hand moulded eyelids, realistic eyes, leather toe and heel pads that were individually moulded and fitted through the soles of his feet, and a very open mouth as you can see here.
I have to admit Bagel was quite a challenge though I  thoroughly enjoyed making him, loved how he turned out and when the time came found it quite hard to say goodbye
