About Me

Bears by Laurie Brady Hello and welcome. I have had a life-long love affair with fibres, textures and teddy bears, so it wasn’t a big leap for me to begin my endeavour with designing and creating artist bears. I made my first jointed teddy bear way back in the early eighties, when teddy bear artistry was in its infancy. I couldn’t bare to waste any of the precious left over mohair, so I designed my first pattern and created a shy little bunny. Over the years, my designs and techniques have evolved. Most of my creations have been inspired by the antique teddy bears we all love so much. But, I do experiment from time-to-time with the odd monkey, horse or character bear. As an artist, I strive to create bears that look and feel as though they’ve had years of love by little hands. I often use vintage fabrics, buttons and trims along with subtle tinting and gentle ageing techniques to achieve the final touches that give each bear it’s own unique character. Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. You can also visit my website at http://www.bearsbylauriebrady.com/index.html Enjoy, Laurie
