Perhaps you know me already, I’m Fiete
the bear.
Do you know how we, the bears, happen to be in Asger’s
paintings? I will tell you how I met him: Like always I was
just about walking on my island. The night was falling and
all of a sudden it was dark, so I got lost.
But then, I saw a light in a little house and went to it.
The door was leaning open. I entered the room and stood right
in front of Asger, the bear painter. “Oh, I see another
bear has found the way to my house, again!” He smiled
and looked at me. “Yes, I think I can paint you quite
well. You may stay here right away.” First I was afraid
but then I found it was a good idea. It was so cosy in this
house. There were bears, dolls and other figures all about
the house and the walls where covered with bear paintings….
