 The voting for this year's URSA-award has just started and I was so brave to enter four pieces. And here they are:
In category 1 Baby Hope, I guess I don't have to tell you about her anymore, but if you want to learn more about the real Hope and her family you can go to http://www.bearstudy.org.    -> after you have done your voting for the URSA.

In category 2 you find my second entry "Up in the Air". He was inspired by the film with George Clooney and not easy to make, so I would really appreciate if you could vote for him.










In category 11 you find my third entry "Meet me in heaven". This little polar bear was inspired by cutr Knut who recently passed away. For this bear, I re-used the pattern that I made four years back for Knut, with some improvements and a different fur.
I wanted to give Knut a happy face because now he is with his Daddy Thomas again.
 My last entry for this year is Kgalagadi in category 14. She was inspired by a little cheetah I met last year in Namibia.
And now, it's time to vote:
