Our study of North American Indian art is taking us to a very cold place (yes, even colder than Holland, Michigan!)--BAFFIN ISLAND, a large island that is northeast of Hudson Bay, and almost to the Arctic Circle.
There, many Inuit Indians make beautiful works of art in their fine traditions of soapstone carving, drawing and printmaking. Our Star Artist, Kenojuak Ashevak, was born in an igloo, and through the years, besides having fourteen children, became one of the area's most well-known artists. Students are inspired by her magical owls to create their own.
