Nova Scotia-New Scots

Prince of the Kingdom of Level-Plains who rested in the Green Island and the highland lost to clearance cry the lone tune of illegal pipes that I am clan Morrison. The bound of chalk and watercolors say that I am an artist. Nova Scotia was originally a colony of Scotland which it shared with France. My people ended up in Ohio.

Nova Scotia has a very different mythology. Behind everything on the left is All Souls Church. Behind everything in the sky is the reverse Saltier which is the flag of Nova Scotia. Behind ever thing on the right is the Halifax town clock. The great statue is Evangeline in Grand-Pré. She is the statue of the Wadsworth poem and Grand-Pré was her home Nova Scotia is where Cajuns come from. She is wear a tam (with red hair) which is a tradition highlander hat for the highland clearances to Nova Scotia. The song says, “O 'illean bithibh sunndach A-null air a bhòidse.”  In front is Fort Anne. Sticking out of the roof is a nanchor shaft from the Halifax Explosion. It is 9” x 12,” drawn with pencil and white chalk and completed recently.

 The name of this piece is Forȇt,  is 6”x8” and drawn with pastel on cardboard recently. I stayed in Mexico for a week and Monterey street kind of seem like this. If you are interested in buying this or any other of my work email me at MatthewMorrison76@yahoo.com to order.
