If carvings sizes followed the canine world, then Adamie's 4 inch Dancing bear would be considered a TEACUP!
These petite pieces (whether they be Inuit carvings, dolls or any decorative art) are cherished and sought after by large numbers of collectors.
I am always astounded by the talent required to meticulously render these "tiny" bears.
I was fascinated with Straight Laced's stoic posture!
Often, Dancing bears are extended backwards, but this charming fellow stands ramrod straight while he dances!
Very unusual.
In the Gallery, I often partner these tiny bears together.
Suddenly, an energy exists between the bears which is endearing and joyful.
