Tiny AND Perfect!
Many of us are fascinated by very small "things".
Dolls, collectibles . . . Inuit carvings.
One of our favourite bear artists, Tim Pee usually carves small to medium size pieces.
Tiny Tim No.1 is not just TINY, he is a Diving bear, standing on his front paws!
Achieving this posture is incredibly difficult for an artist.
The bear must be able to safely balance on its arms.
BUT, Tiny Tim's front legs measure less than an inch and are carved from stone!
Not a very forgiving medium.
And Tiny's perfectly carved head and neck (with the expected Pee facial features) counterbalance his body.
All this to say that Tiny Tim No.1 is a beautiful tiny miracle!
