Mopes, Cold Cast Sculpture of Black Bear

Mopes is a cold-cast black bear sculpture in pecan flour resin. The original model was carved from Black Walnut by hand using various rotary electric carving tools. All casting is done by the artist as well. The finished cold casting is then stained with wood stain and finished in a matte sealer. This is No. 2 in an unlimited edition, signed and dated artwork by the artist.

Mopes is in a lonesome mood just looking for a friend for company. Inspired by the Rolling Stones Song titled “Waiting on a Friend”.
