Bundled up today and headed down to the semi-frozen river for today's lil red canoe launch
As I set the lil canoe into the water , it immediately went under the ice
and then proceeded to flip over , I am sure it will stay here for at least 3 months before it heads down the river on its journey.
Hi, my name is Daniel , I am a visual textural artist and photographer living in the beautiful Trent Lakes follow along with me on my artistic journey , I release canoes down the Miskwaa Ziibi river located in Trent Lakes and connected to the Trent/Severn waterway and they may wash up on the shores of any coastal country around the world.

Hi and welcome to my blog
I will continue to release lil canoes daily
Since being an artist and creator I have started another project that I am very excited about.
Over the last 6 months some people offered to buy lil red canoes and as stated in my first posting July 11 2019 , they will not be for sale , however I am now offering Little Canoe Keepsakes.
They are 5 inches long , hand sculpted from white pine , burned,stained in various colours and coated with a urethane to seal them , also custom orders with names and dates can be burned on the bottom.
Here is what they look like
They are $60.00 CDN shipping not included , if you are interested in having this Canadian Icon , message me here or email Miskwaa.art@gmail.com.
