“Frank”
oil on wood panel – vintage mohair teddy bear
My Valentine bear. I love this little guy. He came to me from England & was the first old teddy I bought for my collection.
A brown & white panda teddy was hard for me to find.
I named him Frank because he has a certain look & love that reminds me of my dad.

WELCOME TO MY ART!
I have been a painter and sculptor for over 43 years professionally and after all this time, I still love it. It is challenging, makes me think about the world and keeps me connected to life.
My art is a mix of realism and impressionism with a bit of humor thrown in.

A for adorable. I was always a teddy child…not so keen on the dolls. He is a cutie ~ Anni :)
Me too!!! I still have my small little teddy from when I was little….he started my collection desire. I only like the real old, well loved bears. Once in a while I see one that says……..take me home.
Thanks!
