| INUIT CARRYING CHILD I was inspipred to paint this watercolor while living in Pond Inlet on Baffin Island in Canadas' high arctic. The water color painting is enhanced by using rabbit fur and glass beads for trim. Inuit mothers don't actually carry their their children in this fashion but in a special parka called an Amauti where the baby is fitted against the mothers back, with a waist sash around the mothers middle and an extra large hood to cover the little one. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amauti |
