This bear has his nose to the ground, hoping to pick up the scent of his next meal.
He has walked for hours and now its time to eat!
Tony approaches his carvings in an imaginative and unpredictable way.
In Walk About's case, Tony has elevated his carving by showing us a bear whose look is angular, and geometric.
All the traditional realistic curves have been squared off .
Look at his face and his claws.
There are not realistic but "abstract".
Tony is an artist who teases us by challenging our ideas of "What is a Tony Bear?"
Tony instinctually knows how to inspire.
