“Howey’s Helper”

In this banner, the sun is setting behind the saw mill on Howey Bay.  There is a beaver that is “helping” move the logs.

Seeing this banner will remind people of the saw mill that used to be on Howey Bay.  For those too young to remember the saw mill, this will show them that it was a big part of Red Lake’s history.

When I first joined the banner program I wasn’t sure what to do on my banner since this isn’t my art style.  I chose the Howey Bay saw mill because I thing that it was a big part of Red Lake’s history and my Grampa Bill Shewchuk ran a saw mill as well.   I added a touch of me with the cartoon beaver.  It is more like some of the other “silly” artworks that I have created in the past.
