"An artistic ode to Canada's majestic foliage." —National Post

Leanne Shapton's bold, vibrant watercolor portraits of the trees of Canada come to new life in this postcard set. The lively hues of the garry oak and the simple elegance of the staghorn sumac are perfectly presented in a beautiful keepsake box, great as a gift for a friend or yourself!
Native Trees of Canada: A Postcard Set collects thirty of Shapton's spirited and singular drawings of the native trees of Canada.

[In The Native Trees of Canada, Shapton has] distilled each image into its simplest form, using vivid colours in gouache, stripping the complex objects down to bold, abstract shapes and colours." - The Globe and Mail "
