Paddling Canoe Weathervane

Our Canoe weathervane is a
great design for a weekend cabin by the lake or for the canoeing enthusiast.
While the canoer featured in this photo is a man, we can also make this
weathervane with a female canoeist or even a family! In this particular
weathervane, we added optional gold leaf to the canoer’s face and arms and as a
trim line around the canoe’s rim.
This particular weathervane
provides me with an opportunity to discuss the difference the actual design
makes in the overall presence of the sculpture piece. The canoe and paddler
weathervane is a very slender and slight design, even in the three-foot
size. Now imagine it next to a three-foot
elephant weathervane.
Both are “large”
sized weathervanes, but the elephant weathervane has a much bigger presence than the canoer
does, simply by the nature of the design itself.

Sizing a weathervane
The design makes a difference
when selecting the correct sized weathervane for your site
Please click on the thumbnails above
to view larger image.
When sizing a weathervane for your
particular site, it is important to keep in mind the actual design you intend to
install. While a two-foot elephant weathervane might be perfectly adequate for
the top of a two car garage, if your design preference was the Canoe
weathervane, you might want to go with the next larger size, even though it
would be going atop the exact same location.
We are always happy to make
suggestions or be of assistance if you are questions regarding the appropriate
sized weathervane for a given location. Just give us a call or drop us and email
and give us a few specifics and we will be glad to guide you through the
process.
