A BRIEF EXPLANATION

The Algonquin tribes of New England and Ontario region gave a name to each of the full moons based upon what was occurring seasonally at that time of year. The names were then recorded in the Farmer's Almanac. The calendar rotates through the following months:

​

January = Wolf Moon             July = Buck Moon

February = Snow Moon          August = Sturgeon Moon

March = Worm Moon             September = Harvest Moon

April = Pink Moon                   October - Hunter Moon

May = Hare Moon                   November = Beaver Moon

June  = Strawberry Moon       December = Cold Moon

​

This series draws inspiration from these natural elements associated with the moon and seasons. I explored these symbols through contrasting elements of design and emphasizing the full moon motif.
