    Bonne année! Happy New Year! Here’s my topical French Canadian folklore print I made for #FolktaleWeek2025: La Chasse-galerie!

    This hand-carved, hand-printed 11” x 14” lino block print on lovely Japanese paper illustrates the famous French Canadian folktale of the Chasse-galerie, or the Flying Canoe. The tale tells of some hardworking voyageurs in their timber camp, 🧵

    I decided I wanted to include some Canadian folklore again this year for Folktale Week, do I knew that for the prompt #FolktaleWeekNight, I wanted to depict New Year’s Eve.

    Many Canadians will recognize, especially in Québec, la Chasse-galerie in this block in progress!
