"Bear Cubs"
Award Winner A set of twin bear cubs. First runner-up at the British Bear Artist Awards 1997.

Alicia's realistic, award-winning polars and grizzlies.


In Dec 1998, when I was as a student in Brisbane, Australia, I saw a very realistic bear in a big teddy bear supplier's window. I stopped because it was such a realistic and unique wild bear. The shopkeeper lady knew me as I purchased teddy bear making items from her. She told me that "it is made by a Singaporean called Alicia Quek who fell in love to sew teddy bear in Perth in 1995. While completing her matriculation programme, she bravely switch the course of her future. " I really wanted to own that bear but as a student, I couldn't afford almost AUD S$1000.

Alicia's bears are not only realistic but also very adorable. "Irresistible to fall in love with Alicia's bears". Most importantly, Alicia Quek is a Multi National Award Artist-World Artist and she also the 1st Singapore Professional Teddy Bear Artist.
