Asger the bear painter

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….
