Aardbeien!
Zijn Sem en Beer nou zo klein of zijn die aardbeien nou zo groot? Ik denk dat die aardbeien gewoon zo groot zijn, dit is tenslotte een bos waar de poppenkabouters vrij rond lopen en de beren praten in plaatjes. Iets anders dan mega grote aardbeien zouden hier gewoon niet thuis horen!
Deze pagina is zooooo goed gelukt, ik ben er echt erg blij mee! Vooral paneel 3 en 6 zijn mijn favoriet, het is me eindelijk een keer gelukt om de diepte werking goed voor elkaar te krijgen. Zeker paneel 3, waarbij de objecten op de voorgrond in de schaduw staan en de achtergrond in minder verzadigde kleuren (atmosferisch perspectief voor de kunstenaars onder ons), heel goed gelukt.
Veel plezier met pagina 17!



I love the second panel in particular, here – the bear offering Sem a leaf to eat is really just great (even though bears are carnivores and eat fish and other prey). I immediately buy the scene and the gesture is just so great. The page overall is really an excellent balance of dialogue and plain action. Really nicely done!

Thanks man! I really appreciate it that you take the time to comment even if you’re thousands of miles away from your home attending a wedding.
I chose leaves because I needed something that would make those strawberries look even more appetizing. I think it worked out quit well. I’m glad you like it!
I agree – and in any case I’m wrong – bears are omnivores, so eating leaves would be right up his alley. And the counterpoint is a good one, though the bear seems hesitant about the strawberry. I think he still prefers his leaves.

Bear is much like any human I guess, very reluctant to give up what they know.
You got me thinking there for a moment about the carnivore/omnivore thing. I always assumed they are omnivores, but I don’t remember where I got that knowledge from
