Moose by Moonlight Drawing

Here is a link for a recent article about my moose series- Moon by Moonlight is also featured in The Guardian-a British newpaper. ?utm_source=esp&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=Art++Weekly+20 A few weeks ago, on my way home from a lecture, weighed down with knapsack, computer bag, groceries ... tired & cold - I passed the condo just up the street, and noticed 2 large storage tubes tossed by the bins. Well...can't resist a great find. I tucked them under my arm and struggled on. When I got home (opening them up outside on the steps...just in case) I found both tubes filled with maps, part of an antique geography teacher's hoard. This is, therefore, the beginning of something beautiful. My first painting is on the 2 largest maps, which, placed together, show an old reproduction of an even older map of the various First Nations hunting grounds, and early European settlements. It's fabulous!!! It's 62" X 48" - made up of 2 panels each 31" X 48". I glued the map onto heavy Fabriano paper.
