oh my goodness thanks for posting all these. i love them!
i am truly honored to be part of such an amazing post.
My favorite inuit artist is here Kenojuak Ashevak.
I am always glad to hear of the indian culture. They lost so much of what was first theirs.
The Inuit little girl is lovely dressed in her native attire.
The art is so beautiful.
Thanks for sharing all.
Beautiful image selection! I love the sea goddess. We have a series of 12 inuit lithos on our walls. I often wonder who the artist was.
These are so pretty and earthy though. And there's something about them so fabulously modern and and the same time ancient.
wow! these are amazing! I love the texture and pattern they use.
Beautiful. beautiful. beautiful! Those are absolutely amazing renderings of owls and other great native images. We LOVE this type of artwork at our house and the history and nobility behind it all! So wonderful to stumble over here. Thanks for stopping by Earth Mama.
