Quotes

  • The Artist is the person who makes life more interesting or beautiful, more understandable or mysterious, or probably, in the best sense, more wonderful.

    ~ George Bellows

    There are painters who transform the sun into a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and intelligence, transform a yellow spot into sun.

    ~ Pablo Picasso

The Nevada City Teddy Bear Convention

As I wrote in a previous post, last weekend was the 25th annual Nevada City International Teddy Bear Convention in Nevada City, California.  The three day event was celebrating its silver anniversary and as always, the gorgeous venue -- the Miner's Foundry, a historical building -- just sparkled.  Twinkling white fairy lights encircled every window in the rugged Great Stone Hall, and bear artists were scattered everywhere with beautiful tables showcasing the most glorious bears and wares.

For a look at my many photos, please visit this link at Teddy Talk, where I've posted them, every last one.  There are also photos from Sonya Shaw (Sunnie Bears).  So much mohair-covered eye candy!

Here, though... just a wee teaser of this wonderful, wonderful show.  I plan to be back next year as an exhibitor.  As much fun as I had visiting with friends, taking my time, and shopping, I missed being on the other side of the table!
