Masterpiece Carving! Marvelous Movement!
JOCK is lost in the moment;
The rapture of his dance permeates every atom in his body.
Is this plumpish bear having one last dance before winter?
Markosie Papigatok's Dancing Bears are adored for their playfulness and their athletic prowess.
Jock is adorable.
Look at the multitude of stripes that adorn Jock's body.
The pattern of oblique strips of colour are unique.
The stripes outline the bear's body so the viewer is hyper aware of all of his gorgeous lines.
The glossy shine of the stone's finish reflects every ray of light.
Papigatok is one of my favourite artists.
He always raises the bar with every new bear>
Collectors want Markosie's bears both for their collections and for gifting.
