Bumble Bear, A Love for Books and Honey

Created by HMD Publishing Illustration Studio

Meet Bumble Bear, a hand-drawn children's book illustration concept following a bespectacled bear through reading, picnic, hiking and evening scenes.

Bumble Bear reads in a green armchair while rain runs down the window and bees drift past the shelves, spoons honey at a checked picnic blanket in a wildflower meadow, hikes a sunlit forest path with a rolled pack, then sits wrapped in a blanket beneath strings of warm lights. Bees appear quietly in every scene. The supporting sheets add a bee companion turnaround, eight expressions, seven visual variations and a six-panel storyboard.
