About

This blog is by an Estonian discovering her childhood dream country Canada. Based in Toronto, but sometimes traveling. Looking for an Estonian connection in the far away country and giving away tips about what to see, what to do, what to experience. Hence the name of the blog: Toronto. Canada. Estonia.

Aboriginal art




Here are two of my favourite pieces I found in the Canadian Museum of Civilization. They both come from the Aboriginal art section. First is picturing soul leaving body after the death and the second shows the birth of a baby.

If you are not familiar at all with Aboriginal art, then I can teach you at least one thing. The style you see pictured on first photo is very specific to Aboriginal painting, also the choice of colours. If you google "aboriginal art" you will find many of such examples. Enjoy1
