"I had these tiles made special. Bought plain tiles in town, took them to Mr. Ahgupuk, the Eskimo Artist and told him what I wanted painted on and then one of the boys who works for Bill glazed and baked them. The boat is called an Umyak when there is room for more than one"

..."The soft spoken George (Ahgupuk) would come in only about twice a year if I recall correctly and when he happened in one day with this water color I was spell bound So beautiful, so alive with color, and caribou on caribou skin; I thought...how appropriate! He seemed a trifle embarrassed by my fawning over it but I had never been so drawn to one of his pieces before and he had brought things in previously and they too were fabulous, but this piece was meant for ME!" ...
