Perfect, perfect, perfect, dear Mervi!

Those \superpictures\ of Doris added by your comments, unic and humorous as always – (hihi: \… he would certainly fire Monalisa and paint a smiling bear instead…\

Thank you so much, and again thank you for this sweet wonderful Magazine!

The pose and palette of colours says it all. How interesting that his fur blends into the rockface!

Hello Isa, you are very welcome here!

Hi Mervi,

You sure do come up with brilliant ideas combining a theme with fantastic photos–a collage of photos and prose. Just perfect. And Doris has outdone herself with the photos–such rich detail and textures. I can just picture Doris standing in front of Knuti, instructing him on how she wanted him to pose–now look this way, put your paw that way… And Knuti, being a generous bear, doing as she asked while smiling gently.

Bear hugs, Sarsam

Dear Isa!

Welcome to Knuti’s Weekly! Thank you so much for your kind words about his magazine. It’s always so good to get some feedback so I’m glad you ‘broke your silence’. I hope to meet you here again!

Celinne, Leaf – Lennon/McCartney, Jagger/Richards are the Verdi, Puccini and Wagner of a modern time. The photographs are the Masters of Painting nowadays….I mean everybody knows Andy Warhol but how many knows Tizian?

Bear hugs to you all from Mervi

This is really an apt description for these photos- they do look like deliberate compositions.
The second one reminds of Mona Lisa- the way Knuti’s paws are aligned similarly to Mona Lisa’s hands in the famous painting, except the fact that Knut looks away to the side, but on the other photo he’s looking straight at us smiling.
Thank you Doris for the photos. BH.

Isa, welcome to KWM. We are pleased to hear you enjoy it.

Very artistic photographs. They bring out a depth to Knuti that is way beyond the cute bear image we all know and love so much. Here we are a seeing a contemplative Knuti as a wise young bear that has been seasoned by life – he knows indescribable joy but he also know sadness and alienation as the inevitable outcome of being born in a universe governed by duality. Thank you Doris for allowing us to see another dimension to Knuti.
