Hello!
My name is Alisa, and I wanted to share some interesting facts about myself and my art:
— I am a professional artist from Ukraine.
— I have had the privilege of learning from some of the best artists across Europe, constantly improving my techniques.
— For the past 4 years, I have been creating bears.
— I have already crafted over 500 bears, which now reside in 27 countries with collectors, artists, actors, and loving families.
— I incorporate my own unique tricks and technologies into my work, giving each bear its own special touch.
— I also teach and inspire a new generation of artists, instilling in them a love for Teddy bears.
— Surprisingly, half of my customers are men who purchase bears for themselves.
— I only use professional materials of the highest quality in my creations.
— In addition to standard designs, I also create custom bears.
— My bears have gained popularity, won professional competitions, and are highly regarded for their craftsmanship and quality.
— They have even participated in fashion shows and have been exhibited in galleries alongside fashion designers.
— Each bear I create possesses its own soul and magic, making them almost alive.
— Every bear is unique and stands out from the rest.
— I am dedicated to my work and love what I do.
— As a new generation artist, I strive to bring a modern touch to my creations.
Unfortunately, due to the war in Ukraine, I lost my home and had to come to America to rebuild my life. Now, I reside in New York and continue to create bears. By adopting one of my bears, you are not only supporting me but also my family back in Ukraine who are still affected by the ongoing conflict.
I am incredibly grateful to my collectors and fellow American artists for their love and warm reception of my bears.
When you adopt one of my bears, it will be carefully wrapped and presented to you like the most precious gift. The day you meet your new bear will be unforgettable.

Spirit
Height 33 cm / 13 inches.
Handmade, one of a kind
The bear that can appear only once a year and only in the first month of winter. Absolutely special. I don’t even want to write much about it. I think everything I could tell you about it, you see in the photo. A magical winter creature with frozen snow in its big eyes. With a piercing gaze and a very bright character. The spirit of winter.
Its fur is delicate alpaca of a rich chocolate color. Paws and palms are made of natural suede. Its sweater is made of pure cashmere, tender as silk. The nose is handcrafted from a special polymer. The horns are also handcrafted and securely attached.
A bear with whom you’d want to drink tea on winter evenings and snuggle up together in a blanket.
It will come to you in a beautiful gift box and can’t wait to meet you.

Veles
Height 33 cm / 13 inches.
Handmade, one of a kind
When I put on his new sweater, I regretted that I didn’t have time to sew a sailor’s hat for him, the one with a pompom. Although initially, I didn’t plan anything with a
He bears the name of a Slavic deity, and my ancestors believed that Veles is the god of abundance and the patron of domestic animals. He is bright and kind. Cozy and domestic. Resembles a Christmas stollen sprinkled with sweet powdered sugar.
The little one is dressed in my signature hoodie with bunny ears on the hood and a gold rabbit print. I make this print manually using a stamp cut for me by my talented artist friend. Previously, I adorned my clothes with it, and now I also use it for bear clothing. I was infinitely happy to discover it among my things when I first returned home from the war. It miraculously survived, and I believe that this little rabbit print will bring luck to everyone who possesses it.
It will come to you in a beautiful gift box and can’t wait to meet you.

Leo
Height 16 cm / 6.3 inches.
Handmade, one of a kind
A little sweet teddy bear. The perfect pocket companion for travels.
I worked on its shapes for a long time, and it seems to me that I finally found the perfect form.
I wanted to create a classic, small teddy bear, but honestly, I’m not very interested in making something entirely simple and traditional. So, this little one turned out with its own character, special proportions, and a complex pattern.
And then there’s this mohair. I just love it. It has such a complex color. It seems to glow and feels warm. I regret that I only have a piece left for one more bear. Most likely, that last one will be mine. And this one could become yours.

Trophy
Height 11 cm / 7.3 inches.
Handmade, one of a kind
Trophy. Your pocket trophy.
A little experiment.
I wanted to take a break from large and complex bears and create someone who would fit in the palm of your hand, someone you could hang on your bag handle or take with you in the car. It has a soft belly filled with shooting pellets that are pleasant to squeeze. The attachment allows you to turn it into a keychain or a bag charm. Teddy to go. Always with you.
Made of viscose.
The price is symbolic. I won’t make more of these. This one is unique.
Also inside are wood shavings, glass granules.

Brutto
Height 33 cm / 13 inches.
Handmade, one of a kind
A very gentle and touching little one. He absolutely refused to be photographed, and I can only hope that you manage to see his soul despite these photos because in person, he is much more beautiful. He is sewn from very delicate, dense, and fluffy alpaca of a rich brown color, which has fibers of different shades, giving it the appearance of natural fur. His heels and palms are made of very soft natural suede. The nose is embroidered. The eyes are dark brown English glass. He wears a cotton sweater with a large hood and cuffs on the wrists.
