About the Work

The Tigresse - Silk Square Scarf is made in Montreal, Canada, and designed by Michael, the son of Glen Loates. This 100% pure silk scarf captures the spirit of Glen's work. The light, luxuriously delicate feel of the silk complements your favourite outfit and even makes it a perfect display piece in your home. This silk scarf has been finished with a rolled baby hem for long-lasting durability and an air of delicacy. Your scarf is always going to stay as vibrant as the day you bought it.

About the Artist
Glen Loates outside by mushrooms kneeling with sketchbook and smiling

Glen Loates R.C.A. has spent his life paying close attention to the natural world. Largely self-taught, he began his professional career at eleven, and in 1974 he was elected to full membership in the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts.

He works from field study and museum study skins rather than photographs, making as many as forty-five pencil sketches of an animal before he paints it, and he begins every painting from the eye.

In 1982, President Ronald Reagan accepted Glen's life-size Bald Eagle in the Oval Office, a gift Glen painted and conceived himself, making him the first Canadian artist represented at the White House.

  • A thoughtful gift for art lovers, travellers and anyone who appreciates refined, nature-inspired accessories.

Materials

  • 8 mm, 100% silk habotai, chosen for its drape and softness.
  • Reproduced with fine detail, capturing delicate linework and subtle shifts of tone.
  • Finished edges for durability and a polished look.
