This has been an exciting year for me.  I am very happy to share my news that I have won Three British Bear Awards.  “Chocolate Thunder” won First Place in the large undressed bear category.  “Snow Bear Princess” won First Place in the groups-of-bears category, and Second place in the Artist of the Year category.  Both bears are pictured in the post below this one.

Hello. I am pleased to announce that my “Snow Bear Princess” and “Happy” bears have been awarded a 2008 TOBY Industry’s Choice Awards.

Also, I have four 2008 Golden Teddy Nominations:  “Siberian Girl” , “Chocolate Thunder” , “Snow Bear Princess”,  and “Happy.”“Chocolate  Thunder”
