Canadian Flowers Scarves Collection
In Canada, each province and territory have their own official provincial flower, which is incredible! First, I drew each of these flowers, and then I assembled them all together as a beautiful flower garden.
Ontario has a soft white Trillium, and it exists in every part of it. In Quebec, there is a Blue Iris, and these are my most favourite flowers. Beautiful Alberta has a soft, prickly Wild Rose. Saskatchewan, a stunning Red Lily. The Northern Provinces and Territories have these small and ascetic wildflowers that attach themselves to rocks, transcending the Great Canadian North’s beauty. And look at those magnificent purple flower heads of Manitoba’s prairie Crocuses! Can you imagine that P.E.I has the northernmost Orchid in the World?
New Brunswick’s Purple Violet flower has an elegant smell, found in many perfumes. Mayflower – May and Flower – which best describes spring blooming in Nova Scotia. A blooming Pacific Dogwood of British Colombia looks like a blissful bride at the ceremony. Fireweed reminds me of my homeland – Ukraine, where also it grows. It has intense rosebuds always brightening during a sunset; what a fantastic flower for the Yukon!
So, you see, what a fabulous ensemble of beautiful flowers we have in Canada! When you wear these scarves, each flower won’t overshadow the others. They are all fantastic in their own unique way and complement each other. That is because they represent Canada, a country for all.
For this project I have used Kylie 4F font by 4th February foundry.
