I was commissioned to do "tree" for a private event in Halifax. Over the years this client has generously commissioned various artists to make a centerpiece for the event. This year was the 25 anniversary of their Christmas party. Canada was the theme for the night, my contribution depicted Canada from coast to coast to coast. 10 feet tall and 60 inches in diameter. I created the structure to be canoe like. Strips of spruce tacked to a form, I then stretched canvas over the shape.
