Brand new Giant Squid Frankster is our resident Bear expert and boy can she teach the world a lot about this magnificent creature! Not only does one of her most popular lens Are You Polar Bear Aware? donate to the National Wildlife Federation’s Alaska Natural Resource Center, it was also Squidoo’s 2007 Lens of the Year 2nd Runner-up and as of today has 379 Star Ratings!

Frankie also has 19 additional lenses about Bears including one of my favorites, Saving The Dancing Bears Of India. This compelling lens shows the tragic abuse that these bears endure and the compassionate people who are trying to save them including Frankie herself. Her love of bears started when she sculpted a polar bear for a friend. From there she started Sculptures by Frankie which donates 10% of her sculpture sales to help save bears.

Frankie’s dedication to saving these beautiful endangered animals, both with her lenses and her art, is truly inspiring, and I am so proud to be in her company as fellow Lensmaster and Giant Squid. So please take a look at her library of work, you can learn a lot from this amazing lady!
