A birthday card I made with Corrie in 1996 for Michael Feng, teddy bear nut. I sketched out the main parts and the poem title in pencil, and Corrie inked it, colored it, and did all of the other lettering. (In other words, she did all of the time-consuming parts.)

The eyes ended up inverted; I meant for them to be black with white glints (but who am I to question Corrie’s artistic judgment?). I think the way it came out, though, does give the bear some more personality as he tries to avert his eyes from the horrors inflicted upon him.

  2. Wow. That was… a really long time ago.

    I never knew about the teddy’s eyes being inverted. Sorry about that.
