Pine Needle Bear by Richard Carpenter

Hello, I loved your sculptures of the bears. I am in school doing a project on different forms of art. And wouyld like to ask a few questions about your work.is there a message in your work or do you just like bears? Do you have a web site to veiw mor of your work?

Magnificent work, Richard. I am assuming these antlers are off the forest floor. You must have a great deal of patience. I am so surprised it only took you 8 months to put together such a large bear. Kudos and keep up the wonderful work. Might show some of that around Northern Minnesota, especially the bears.

Richard,

Your bears are totally awesome,do you sell them? If so, how can I purchase one. You have an amazing talent. I collect bears and would love to have one of these for my collection.

I am the webmaster for Richards new site; MountainMagicOriginals.com/!!! Stop by and visit and see all of his amazing work! He does some fantastic things with moose antlers and just regular old everyday items.

Your bears are just beautiful. I collect bears and only bears are allowed in my house. I have been counting and photographing for 5 years to get into the Guinness Book or World Records and am finally almost done. I would love to have one of your pine needle bears in my collection. You have done really extraordinary work and what a wonderful way to recycle.
Keep up the great work and let your creative juices keep flowing. Bye the way Thomas is wrong about bears being dastardly etc. We encroach on their territory and burn down their habitate, not the other way around.
They are not a threat to our way of life, we are a threat to them. Anyway, Richard they are wonderful. Thanks for the treat of seeing exceptional artistry.
