Moomintroll and snufkin

i've been watching the most recent moomin valley remake animation and a game i play and enjoy also recently by quincidence got a moomin valley event going on (sky children of light)  it just so happens that in my family we actually really enjoy moomin. my mom read the stories to us when i was a kid. and in todays age i own a moomin plush and like to gift my mom cups with moomin prints on them for her to drink her tea from. i actually also got moomin print bowls for my dog as well as a nonslip matt to catch the water or crumbs from the bowls when she eats and drinks. so in celebration of moomin and the writer there of Tove Jansson. Tove Jansson actually died a month before i was born and she was born in my birth month which i am just now learning. i decided to draw some pieces. for now i have drawn moomin troll and snufkin but i may just draw more of them yet. i do really enjoy these stories and the 2020 reanimation is actually really decent considering the remake situations as of recent years. give it a watch. season 4 is supposed to launch sometime soon last i heard :3 happy timezones people Commissions are Open links https://www.deviantart.com/blakefate https://www.tumblr.com/blakefate1356 https://www.patreon.com/BlakeFate https://ko-fi.com/steph90314 https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/31935735

Hello!

Here's an animation of Moomintroll sleeping on and off

I plan on doing more animations hopefully in the future, but for now, this is the one I got ^^

May GOD bless you all and take special care!

If you didn't get any books that wowed you for the holidays, these three volumes of The Illustrators series would be a great end of December gift to yourself. Each has a mix of text (biography and bits about the artist's work), finished illustrations, and sketches.

Tove Jansson (The Illustrators) by Paul Gravett. Series consultant Quentin Blake. Series Editor Claudia Zeff. Thames & Hudson, 2022. 9780500094334. 112pp. http://www.powells.com/book/-9780500094334?partnerid=34778&p_bt

This volume has a few bits of non-Moomin work, including a self-portrait in oils, though most of the illustrations are of Jansson's most famous characters. There are, unfortunately, only a few early versions of her illustrations for The Hobbit inside.

Posy Simmonds (The Illustrators) by Paul Gravett. Series consultant Quentin Blake. Series Editor Claudia Zeff. Thames & Hudson, 2019. 9780500022139. 112pp. https://www.powells.com/book/-9780500022139?partnerid=34778&p_bt

Simmonds started making comics when she was very young, and there are examples from when she was nine or ten. The book places more emphasis on her editorial illustrations and comics for adults (Cassandra Darke, Gemma Bovary, Tamara Drewe, and Mrs. Weber's Diary) than her picture book illustrations, though I probably wouldn't give this book to a child. My favorite drawing in the book is of her workspace.

Ludwig Bemelmans (The Illustrators) by Quentin Blake and Laurie Britton Newell. Series consultant Quentin Blake. Series Editor Claudia Zeff. Thames & Hudson, 2019. 9780500519950. 112pp. https://www.powells.com/book/-9780500519950?partnerid=34778&p_bt

The fantastic thing about many of Bemelmans' art is that they're so simple that it's easy to see how they were drawn, yet so elegant that it's also easy to see his genius. I loved Madeline before I picked this up, but this book made me a fan, and now I'm out to track down a few of his other books that I first saw here.

(Each volume includes a chronology, selected bibliography, and index at the back.)

Moomintroll seems to be having something in his mind that made him feel, a certain way let's just say ^^

Hope you guys are doing well, GOD bless and take special care of yourselves!

Vinterdvale og julehumør

Denne anmeldelse blev oprindeligt på teateravisen.dk

En stemningsskabende fortæller, akkompagneret af fint vinter-lydspor, sætter rammen for Teatret Zeppelins dukke-dramatisering af Tove Janssons bog om mumitroldenes første møde med – ikke bare vinter og sne, men også – julen, der ikke sådan er til at blive klog på. Det er finurligt og fint helt i tråd med forlægget. ’Da julen kom til Mumidalen’ er oplagt som underfundigt og hyggeligt indslag i en travl december.

Salens opmærksomhed fanges intenst fra start, hvor Mie Brandt med god dramatisk sans giver sig til at fortælle om mumiernes livscyklus.

Lige nu er de i vinterdvale, forstår vi. Alle er nysgerrige og stille for at få det hele med, og den yderst billedskabende stemningsopbygning forløses fornemt med det fineste vinterlandskab, som tæppet går fra. Det sner fra himlen, og alt ånder fred og idyl.

Johanne Eggerts smukke sne-scenografi er enkel med store snedynger, der glimter, bjerge i baggrunden og et lille blåt hus i midten, hvor der som prikken over i’et kan komme røg op fra skorstenen.

Det er en virkelig god begyndelse på en meget fin forestilling, der får os alle ned i tempo, og det kan undre, at aldersgrænsen er sat helt op til 5 år. Mange mindre børn ville også oplagt kunne suge stemningen til sig og nyde roen og detaljerne i fortællingen.  

’Men ikke alle sover…’

Inde fra det lille hus hører vi heftig snorken fra mumierne dybe vintersøvn. Der smaskes lidt og vi kan næsten mærke varmen under dynerne. Pludselig høres der også en prut, og hele salen sprutter af grin.

Vores dygtige fortæller viser sig også at være en ferm dukkefører. En god basrytme akkompagnerer hendes fine føring af Hemulen, der irriteret og lettere julestresset møffer rundt i vinterkulingen.

En helt anden ro skabes med varmt lys og svævende toner, når vi er med i Mumis rare drøm under dynerne. Stemningsskiftene er ligesom scenografien enkel og effektfuld. Dertil emmer dukkeføringen, med forskellige stemmer og gemytter til dalens mange beboere, af simpel børneleg, som publikum selv kunne have gang i hjemme på værelset. Her er plads til at dvæle ved detaljerne.

Alle skal op og ned ad stigen (da mumierne konsekvent går ind gennem taget!), og det tager både tid og er besværlig for de fleste mumitrolde. Mumifar falder endda, og affejer det som ingenting, som vi kender det fra Wulffmorgenthalers Dolph-figur, der stædigt fastslår; ’Jeg var lige oppe’, hver gang han falder.

Ligeledes opremses opskriften på Mumimors varme forkølelsessaft, og det slås fast med sødmefuld, myndig mine, at den ’smager af sommer og jul i en mundfuld.’

Sproglige billeder som disse er der mange af med fin reference til Tove Janssons bøger.

Julens forventninger

Trods forestillingens ro er forvirringen stor blandt vores mumitrolde. De har aldrig set sne før og er helt fortumlede af at blive revet ud af deres dybe vintersøvn. Ingen forklarer dem noget, men i forbifarten opsnapper de en halv vind om, at julen kommer, og de forstår så meget, at man skal bruge et træ for at klare sig. For dem er julen noget ukendt og farligt, som må formildes ved at opføre sig korrekt over for den.

Det er en skøn måde at se på det hele udefra, og bøgernes evne til at forene det trygge med det farefulde – og her også de højtidelige traditioner med det humoristiske – er smukt sat i scene.

Min lille ledsager synes, at det er noget så sjovt, at man kan tro, at julen er noget farligt, og han klukker lystigt over de mange forviklinger og forberedelser hos de stakkels mumier.

’Spiser den også?!’ udbrydes der forfærdet, da det går op for dem, at man også skal lave mad til julen. Alle i salen morer sig kosteligt over at vide bedre, og der er ikke et øje tørt, da der bliver disket op med alle mulige retter, som jo slet ikke er julemad.

På samme måde går det med juletræet, der skal ’pyntes smukt som muligt’. Mumimor finder efter bedste evne både perler og roser frem, og træet bliver faktisk fint, om end ikke ligefrem traditionelt.

På den måde bliver der efterhånden alligevel julestemning i den lille mumidal, som det hele skrider frem, og et smukt grønt lys indhyller himlen i den sidste idylliske scene. Som voksen er referencen til nordlys klokkeklar, men min lille ledsager mener nu nok, at det godt kunne være et stinkdyr.

Dermed får undertegnede – og nu også I – lige et ekstra billede med fra dette elskelige univers.
