“Moose, abundant in the dense forests of the Anishinaabe territories, serve as a crucial source of food…Moreover, various parts of the moose – its hide, fur, antlers, and more – are employed in the fabrication of drums, artistic creations, and an assortment of tools. Unsurprisingly, then, the moose is a frequent subject of the Anishinaabe painters of this time.”
Happy #MooseDay!

Apparently January 25 is Moose Day. 🤷‍♀️

Enjoy this Moose.

A moose lino block print is hand printed on delicate, translucent, handmade Japanese paper with a deckle edge. Each print is 9.5” tall and 12” wide (24.1 cm by 30.5 cm). This is a North American bull moose (Alces alces), which, confusingly is called an elk in British English.
