Magnificent Movement!
BRUTUS has his nose down to the ground, hoping to pick up the scent of his next meal.
He has walked for hours and now its time to eat!
I love how Tony approaches his Bear carvings.
You cannot predict how Tony will portray his bears.
One bear may be long and lean; the next can be stout and round like a classic Teddy bear.
Tony instinctually knows how to "tweak" the smallest detail.
He has positioned Brutus' head with the slightest of tilts.
Suddenly, Brutus is curious and thoughtful as he deciphers his immediate surroundings.
I'll admit.
I have fallen for Brutus.
He is so realistic that I fully expect him to turn around and look my way.
There is magic in the heart of this bear.
