The Canadian Loon is a symbol of the Canadian wilderness and evokes a feeling of tranquility. This loon was designed from my collection of photos from one of the many lakes in Saskatchewan.
I reproduced this loon in a watercolour to colourplan the work and finished it in wool strips hooked into foundation cloth.

The hooked rug piece is currently available at the Saskatchewan Craft Council Boutique @skcraftcouncil on Broadway in Saskatoon.
