Experimental workshop with Silvia Durrer (Australia / Switzerland)
Misty
is a special designed bear, perfectely made for learning different techniques and
experience with needle sculpting and shading.
Misty, a bear lady with 25 cm of size, is designed to lie on her back with
the legs in the
air. She is made from alpaca with ultra-suede
paw pads. Misty has a double neck joint and a
tummy insert. She is 6-way cotter-pin jointed.
Her arms
are armatured, her fingers are bendable. She is
ideal for the bear maker who is comfortable to make a bear but would
like to learn different techniques and experience with needle-sculpting
and shading.Prior to the workshop, each participant
will get a whole kit sent at home, including detailed instructions. The
bear has to be sewn beforehand. During the workshop, we will mainly be working on the face and
pawns as they will extensively be needle-sculpted and painted. In addition,
the face will be featured with glass eyes including eyelids, eyelashes and a beautifully
embroidered nose.
