Teddy Bear Painter : I have been featured...

I'm so happy ; I have been featured in Bears and Buds Magazine as a teddy bear painter.
Here is the article and the link : http://bearsandbuds.com/Michauds-articles/TeddyBearsofAnotherGenrePart2byTerryMichaudforBearsandBudsTeddyBearMagazine.asp




Canadian artist Chantal Giroux did this teddy bear piece just for our article.
           
Our next artist, Chantal Giroux, is an active member of Bears&Buds and makes her home to our north in Saint Johns, New Brunswick Canada. 
This delightful teddy bear artist was attracted to teddy bears right from her childhood, and they remain her passion today. 
Her daughter Laura, who is also a teddy bear artist, is quick to praise her mother’s talents. 
Chantal’s work includes her expressions in knitting, crochet, tatting, painting, embroidery and a long list of other forms of creating amazing teddy bears. 
Daughter Laura says “Mom made her first crochet bear about 7 years ago, and I still have it! Bear making is not a job for her; it is her life.” 
Take a look at Chantal’s other creations too.
