Blush of Dawn

Artist
Alisa Blake
Description
Inspired by the soft light of dawn over the Northwest Territories, Blush of Dawn reflects the quiet beauty of a new day beginning. Handcrafted with delicate beadwork and luminous mother-of-pearl accents, the design captures the warmth and gentleness of the morning sky as it awakens the land.

Rooted in Indigenous artistry and a deep connection to place, this piece celebrates light, renewal, and the beauty found in nature's quiet moments.
