We are very pleased to offer this limited edition etching-and-aquatint print by Cape Dorset’s Kenojuak Ashevak, one of Canada’s best-known artists. Called Birds Make Me Happy, this elegant image features an emblematic rusty-orange owl flanked by a symmetrical pair of stylized yellow-and-brown sea birds. Produced in collaboration with Montreal's Studio PM and printed on heavy white Arches paper, Kenojuak's striking composition reflects the artist’s profound respect for nature. Each print in the edition of 50 has been numbered and signed in Inuktitut by the artist.

All proceeds from the sale of Birds Make Me Happy will be used to help launch a new series of artist residency workshops to be hosted by Montreal's Studio PM. Starting this winter, two Inuit artists will be invited to spend two weeks at Studio PM’s state-of-the-art printmaking facilities in Montreal, where they will be exposed to a range of printing techniques and drawing media. The purpose of this program is to give participants the opportunity to acquire valuable new art-making skills while facilitating and promoting creative growth.

By purchasing this unique print, you will be helping to support innovation and opportunity for emerging and established Inuit artists.
