The poem came from page 133 in “The Poacher’s Son” by Paul Doiron. I’ve become obsessed with this series — I read the first three books over the last five days. The scene in the book is about a game warden tracking a bear that’s been shot. I left out all the gory details.
@margonaut Yes! On the left they are mostly in the same order they were on the page; on the right they’re a little more mixed up. It was a lot of fun. It’s been my goal to only paint birch trees this year. So no matter what we’re learning, I adapt it some way to birches. I thought it was pretty funny that I read this page a couple days before our Zoom class.
