**Ning Ashoona's SIGNATURE Bird Carving
Masterpiece Carving! Blissful Motion!
Ning's SIGNATURE bird carving is the loon or the swan
You know the look . . . graceful, simple sophistication.
All her birds are sought after by art collectors around the globe.
The serenity and grace of these birds pull you into the calm waters.
I am always inspired by Ning.
With a simple placement of the eye and the elongated neck and head barely clearing the surface of the lake, Ning has given ON MY WAY HOME a determined yet plaintiff demeanour.
This bird is anxious to get home as the storm has arrived and the lake is becoming turbulent.
Ning is a magician when it comes to joining the neck of the swan onto the body of the bird.
She makes it so seamless.
Such poise.
Ning Ashoona is the only active female carver from Cape Dorset.
