Artist's Comments
So here's part of another series I've been working on this semester. This one is for my visual narrative class. Basically what I've been doing is illustrating spreads for a number of Canadian folk songs. So far I have images from "The Huron Carol", "Land of the Silver Birch" and "Soft is the Song my Paddle Sings"
I used my photograph "The Great Diver" as reference for the loon: [link] This piece was heavily inspired by Native Canadian painter Maxine Noel's (AKA Ioyan Mani) "Spirit of the Woodland." However, I in no way tried to reproduce it or Ms. Noel's style. Media: Watercolour, chalk pastel and gouache on illustration board. The original of this image (as well as some of the others from this series) will be for sale at the 2007 La Cloche Art Show on July 27th, 28th and 29th. If you share a love for Canadian wilderness and wildlife please visit my new club:  The title of this image is taken from Pauline Johnson's, "Soft is the Song my Paddle Sings" Other Images from this Book: The Huron Carol I - [link] The Huron Carol II - [link] The Huron Carol III - [link] Hills of the North - [link] Soft is the Song - Prints of this piece are up for sale in my Etsy shop: [link] Postcards of this piece are also up for sale in my Etsy shop: [link] |

It's very elegant and stylized, yet still very lifelike.
Wonderful shade of green for the water.
