Museum quality Carving! Magic Motion!
SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE opens his fins as if preparing for the biggest Beluga hug or maybe, he is waiting for his “dance partner” to swim into his arms so they can begin tumbling and somersaulting in the fresh Arctic water.
Pits chose to carve Belugas so we could appreciate their intelligence and gregarious personalities.
Pits was a genius in so many ways, but his ability to select THE perfect stone for one of his pieces was amazing!
So’s stone is reminiscent of a mosaic with layers of different hues and intensities of green.
SIMPLY stunning!
