Slow Art Sunday - Morriseau

This week on Slow Art Saturday, I have chosen a Norval Morriseau painting called "Quail Family". Morriseau was an Ojibway artist born in Thunder Bay, Ontario in 1931 who is considered a leader in Canada for contemporary Indigenous art. He painted this in his signature colourful and simplistic style in 1973.

I chose this painting for my "Q" chapter of art curriculum (still in production 😉). You can swipe to see a pic of my painted quail.

Take a few minutes to look slowly and enjoy the thought of a quirky quail family nestling together. For an extra challenge, try your hand at a little sketch - it's not about being a perfect artist but improving your observation skills (and having fun!).
