Next in my Canada 🇨🇦 series: the Northwest Territories with its territorial symbols the gyrfalcon and mountain avens flowers on my hand-carved linocut map of NWT. The block was inked 'à la poupée' (with different colours, gray-brown, green and yellow, in different areas) and printed by hand on lovely Japanese kozo (or mulberry) paper.
