Bears of Sheffield: #9 Super Bear

#9 of 61 big bear sculptures, this one was decorated by Rob Lowe and is located at the Castle Square tram stop. The challenge for Rob was to paint straight lines on an uneven surface. The end result is somewhere between a painting and a Supermundane outfit that the Bear is wearing. He hopes it will bring a smile to those that see it out in the wilds of Sheffield.

#32 of 61 big bear sculptures, this one was decorated by Jat Cover and is located on Paternoster Row. Jay’s Plants & Bees Bear design is based on spring time, around the time when he was actually making the Bear.

Bears of Sheffield: #33 Colours by Charlie 2

#33 of 61 big bear sculptures, this one was decorated by Marcus Method and is located in Sheaf Square in front of Sheffield Railway Station. Marcus’s Bear is inspired by the bright and colourful imagination that children have. Marcus’s own nephew has been treated by Sheffield Children’s Hospital before which inspired him to gather various children’s opinions on the project. Gathering all his paints, he asked his nephew to pick his favourite colours and this formulated the basis of the colour palette, Marcus then applied these in a fun way which allow visitors to see something new each time they look at the Bear.
