Canoe Series #44
Canoe Series #44 - Image 2

Canoe Series #44

      This is the 44th sculpture in my Canoe Series. You will notice the edition number and my signature engraved on the back of the glass canoe. My Canoe Series started with a small edition of six in 2016, and there are now a total of forty-five in the growing edition. Number 44 was created in 2022, and it is the very first time in the Canoe Series that I have ever added a heron by attaching it to a foreground root. This gives the impression of it fishing quietly in front of the island. (I usually feature herons in my sculptures where the island is surrounded by water glass) The stone that I selected for this piece comes from the beautiful Muskoka region in central Ontario. I hope that it reminds you of paddling on your favourite lake or river whenever you view it. The piece, with its red canoe, really “comes to life” when placed by a window, but you probably already have a location in mind for it.

    Thomson

    Paddle strokes heard through the morning mist foreshadow an artist in search of inspiration. Algonquin presents its gifts to all who are willing to receive. Some see landscapes in vibrant colours and bold brushstrokes, while others pass without thought. Be a painter with your presence. Protect the forest, and guide others to respect its treasures. Move slowly, and absorb the vistas before you. Take pause from devices that distract, and discover your inner Thomson.
