Paddle Art: Birchbark Canoe by Edward Comou

On the search for more paddle related art, I came across this painting on FineArtAmerica.com featuring a bark canoe and a straight sided, Passamaquoddy grip styled paddle...

Birch-bark Canoe
Edward Coumou
Painting - Watercolor
Description by Artist:
An original watercolor loosely inspired by an old photo. I am fascinated with water reflections and the challenge of painting them.



To my eyes, the lines and decoration of the canoe look like something built by well known birchbark craftsman, Steve Cayard...
