If you’re wondering how a bear made it into the book, you are not alone. With her coarse coat, and the sheer abundance of it, Mimi resembles a great Grizzly in the wild. Or, perhaps, the land that it walks on. I couldn’t help but notice the way that all of the earthen colors, mixed with the varying lines and textures, came together to create a portrait resembling that of an aerial photo from high above a snow-topped forest.
