Labrador- Nature

Culm’s corn of the Little Old Man of the Barn and the wheel of the Little Red Dummy whisper to the wind that I am Clan Morrison. The Chi of soot and paper that is barely there and the forcing of Zen declare me an artist. I am from the bayou or Acadiana and part of old Acadia was Labrador.  Because of the seclusion, Labrador is quintessential Canadian. Ironically. The name is more associated with the dog breed. I tried growing corn once.


Labrador has a special mythology. This  the weird animal on the canoe is Kuekuatsheu which is on X-men Origin Wolverine which is from the Innu mythology who are native to Labrador. Behind everything is Torngat Mountains.  The church on the right is one of the two surviving Moravian Churches in Labrador which have been there sense 1752. The roller on which everything rests is the historic warehouses in-the-harbour of battle harbour-battle-harbour. The canoe is for the Labrador Heritage society.  It is 9” x 12,” drawn with pencil and charcoal and completed recently.  The Beaver is the Crytid being that it is said that a 700 pound beaver lives there. The stone knife in front of the canoe is from Forteau Point from a culture about 8, 000 years ago. If you are interested in buying this or any other of my work email me at MatthewMorrison76@gmail.com to order.
