    Description

    SIMEONIE AMAGOALIK
    (1933-2011)
    WAS AN IMPORTANT CANADIAN ARTIST, HAVING BEEN COMMISSIONED BY THE GOV'T TO SCULPT THE
    HIGH ARCTIC RELOCATION MONUMENT IN RESOLUTE  BAY, NUNAVUT, CANADA.
    CONSIDERED BY MANY TO BE ONE OF THE TOP THREE INUIT STONE CARVERS,  I WAS PROUD TO CALL HIM FRIEND.  I ACQUIRED SEVERAL OF HIS PIECES WHEN IN RESOLUTE BAY ON SEVERAL DIFFERENT OCCASIONS.  HE IS KNOWN FOR HIS FINE DETAILS AND HOURS OF FINISH WORK.  HIS WORK STARTED WITH THE SELECTION OF ONLY PERFECT STONE MATERIALS AND DAYS OF STUDYING EACH ROCK FOR THE ART PIECE.  NOTE:  HIS PIECES HAVE ALL NATIVE MATERIALS, INCLUDING STONE EYES, BONE BASES, TINIEST OF TOENAILS, ETC.
    THESE PIECES ARE FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION AND ARE ALL OF MUSEUM QUALITY.  IF INTERESTED; PLEASE SEARCH E-BAY FOR
