Anouk - adopted to Moscow

Here is my latest little summer sunshine - Anouk!
Anouk is a sweet 15 cm tall polar bear girl - looking for a loving home.
Her fur is made from soft snow white antique viscose (Steiff-Schulte), her little nose is embroidered.
I carefully needle felted her eyelids and gave her black German glass eyes. She is five way jointed so that she can pose in multiple ways.
Her paw pads are needle felted as well. I sculpted tiny claws and painted them black. For more expression I carefully shaded her face by hand.
Anouk is filled with sheep wool and steel shots for weight.
I knitted a blue-white striped skirt with a small silk ribbon for her. On her head she is wearing her favourite blue pom-pom.
