Description
This is the 55th sculpture in my Canoe Series. You will notice the edition number and my signature engraved on the back of the red canoe. My Canoe Series started with a small edition of six in 2016, and there are now a total of fifty-six in the growing edition. Number 55 was created in November of 2024, and even if I create more in the future, this will always be one of the first fifty-six in existence. Its value will only increase with the passage of time. My Canoe Series pieces have evolved from small starter sculptures to larger and more detailed pieces, and most include a loon by attaching it to a foreground root. This gives the impression of it swimming peacefully by the front of the island. This piece features one loon swimming away from the island with the prevailing winds behind it. The very special stone that I have selected for this piece has a mixture of quartz and other rusty coloured minerals that compliment the red canoe and green pine well. I hope that this piece reminds you of paddling on your favourite lake or river whenever you view it. The piece, with its bright red canoe set on a unique stone, really “comes to life” when placed by a window.
