This is a stunning and impressive dancing bear by Markosie Papigatok. Markosie is extremely talented for this style of dancing bears and is what his specialty is.

This dancing bear in particular is nice because it is full of life and movement. It is dancing on one foot. The stone and the color are equally gorgeous. I always liked brown stone as it adds much warmth and harmony, and at the same time creates a strong contrast to its surroundings. With these features, this bear has a striking appearance and will be immediately noticeable at first glance to your audience.

This sculpture is large and impressive and measures 10" tall, 8.5" wide. This carving is new and purchased directly from the artist.
