Charming Dance Moves!

Chubby Dancing bears bring to mind our cherished childhood Teddy bears. 

SUMMER DAYS can kick his feet and angle his paws as well as any larger Dancing Bear.

His nose is pointed high into the sky.

Sometimes, he closes his eyes and prays that he won’t fall over as he assumes his Dance moves.

Markoosie has chosen the perfect stone for this mini Bear;  cool dark green bedazzled with fine white veins of white.

The green suggests a dark forest while the white adds the softness of summer clouds.

Summer Days  is a prime example of why Markoosie is a sought after carver of small Dancing bears.
