My prize art pieces are my one of a kind PINE NEEDLE BEARS.  Each one has it’s own unique character.  My life size, hand woven BEAR took me 8 months to create, and has been introduced around the world.  He is set up in a lovely Ponderosa Pine display case, with lighting.

This BEAR has been in a Teddy Bear Scene Magazine out of the U.K.  Also has been on display at I.S.U., on television newscasts, Newspaper articles, and filed in the archives of the Folk Art Institute.
