another playful take on Winnie the Pooh

My admiration for all things “not quite all” Pooh Bear started in high school philosophy and theology classes when I found “The Tao of Pooh” and “The Te of Piglet.” It was then that I realized the full power of using the Hundred Acre Woods as a background to whatever world you want. I see Miss L doing it all the time, with her “little Winnie the Pooh” or her “big Winnie the Pooh” and I smile because it’s such a wonderfully safe world to escape to every now and then.

You might remember the amazingly cute “Wookie the Chew” work by James Hance that I’ve loved forever… [as shown below and only $10 a print people!!!]

Well look what I just found today! Comic book style Winnie the Pooh commissions by Charles Paul Wilson III… featuring more geeky favorites of characters in the spirit of that silly ‘ol bear!
