No one could capture the rustic beauty of a summer’s meadow more masterfully than this 20th century illustrator:

Our precious brown bears are practical, down-to-earth, efficient and methodical in their work, but also can reach for the stars and the spiritual realms if they allow themselves time to “stop and smell the roses”. Like their plant, the violet, brown bear people can have a cool quality but also a deep tenderness about their nature. They prefer to show their feelings through quietly working to improve the lives of those they love rather than through showy displays of sentiment. Bears have a cheerful good nature but can become aggressive if necessary to protect their cubs and loved ones. Being omnivorous, they enjoy every type of food, but their favorites are berries and honey. Tea time anyone?
