Some random sketches … so bear with me!
These are early drawings of The Bears, i.e, how they looked before the webcomic images.
You’d see I also tried to draw other artists’ bears before figuring out my own bears.

Cute doughnut bear. One of the first sketches I made while coming up with the characters for “Being Bears”. Still think he’s super adorable!

To obtain ideas I use everyday occurrences. There is an attic in my house, and Laura can’t get into it. But I can. So naturally she thinks it is a wonderful fantasy world or winter wonderland. It’s just really dusty!

Who doesn’t love a good cuppa?

Motivated by the Hiking Bear in One Piece during the Drum Island arc.

Love Bears 🙂

While coming up with the Being Bears characters, I used other comic/cartoon bears as reference. This one is motivated by the cartoon We Bare Bears.

This one was motivated by a really long story … hilarious but long!

Two bears having coffee after dinner.

If she could have, she would have.

In the Loomis Fun with a pencil book, there was a pose reference of a person fishing that I liked.

We were never in the tip!

Some time in 2016 I was ill for a few months.

A Bear’s gotta eat!

Chilling out on the couch reading.

We have an allotment. First attempt at drawing plants!

The bear on the left was inspired by a character and comic at lizclimo.tumblr.com. Also pizza!

Sometimes, I really want to …
