I know this is quite old but I was able to find some decent examples using the MVC pattern with both Tk and wxPython, hopefully they provide some help for anyone stumbling upon this question.

wxPython: http://wiki.wxpython.org/ModelViewController

Tk: http://tkinter.unpythonic.net/wiki/ToyMVC This website no longer exists so I've hosted the code on a Gist here.
