John Kirslis holds the record for the number of years participating as a bear sculptor; prior bears include "Man and Bear" (2001), "Tabula Rasa" (2002), "Bear of Glass" (2003), and last year’s "Bear That Broke All Records." As a noted jewelry designer (formerly with Kenneth Jay Lane) and resident of Dingmans Ferry, his widely admired inventive use of alternative materials in creating bear sculptures continues with "Bearly There."
