I've had a busy few days. Been doing some painting, building a web site for the bears, & I managed to finish a bear last night. All this in between doing the usual boring stuff like shopping & house work......yuk!!!! Anyway below you will see what I have been doing artistically. I also went to a Summer fete last Sunday which had a craft show & had two bears & a bunny adopted. Oh & if you are interested the bears web address is lanesendbears.weebly.com

Spent a pleasant weekend at two different craft shows.
Saturday sold a few painted pieces at Emsworth Art & Craft centre.
Sunday was a relatively new event at the Waverley Pub in Aldwick.
This was held in a function room at the back of the pub &, I think, was
quite successful for most of us that attended. Again I sold some painted
pieces & two bears were adopted. Had to leave a little earlier that the 
others so I could attend my little great grandson's 3rd birthday party.
Lennie, on the left of the picture, was adopted yesterday


Oliver, adopted yesterday

dinks & rust spots it's acquired over the years.
