Museum quality Carving! Magnificent Movement!
The finish Quaraq has achieved for Breaking is outstanding!
Flawless, high gloss mirror finish, smooth, smooth SMOOTH!
A Dancing bear must balance on one leg or one paw.
The carving artist must have years of experience and ample patience to be able to achieve this engineering miracle.
Typically, a Dancing subject will be upright with arms held upright in order for the piece to remain balanced.
But Breaking is leaning far off the midline to the right and his large glorious paws are held at chest level.
Absolutely amazing!!!
Breaking is a large Dancing bear, the kind of sculpture that would be a STAND ALONE piece that would immediately draw your friends and family to him.
Or he would be the Leader of your beloved collection.
Either way, Breaking is an incredibly beautiful piece of art.
