I got my very first Cape Dorset print though not really a print but an artist proof. I wanted to get it last year but didnt want to spend the $$$ plus with big purchases I always apply a one week rule though in this case, it was more like a year of thinking. This is what we got, number 22 And good for me for waiting, it was on sale and I got there right on time since after I seal the deal so to speak, 3 other people inquired about it and was told it’s sold..to us. So I am happy. I hope to get a “Kenojuak Ashevak” print soon, hers are expensive but she is a very good Inuit artist. She is 81 years old so dont know how long she is able to make beautiful drawings. But more on her here.


That is a nice one. We have #24, Owls at Midnight and, as you know, we got our Ashevak this year. The Dorset print show is one of the events I look the most forward to each year.

I can’t believe you got that print!!! We couldn’t get it last year here in CD, and then searched for it for a while after!! I’m so jealous lol!! Meanwhile this year we are totally going for a Kenojuak Ashevak! That’s the person to buy from as soon as you can, she is so famous! Good for you getting that print on sale btw! It’s a gorgeous print!
