Gjoa Haven carvings are quirky and playful.
And always, unexpectedly thought provoking!
For instance, seals are usually sleek and streamline.
But Puppy Love has oversized exaggerated flippers reminiscent of legs.
His body is not streamlined but short and curvaceous
Seal eyes are big and soulful like a puppy.
Puppy Love has flat inlaid eyes and very large nostrils.
This charming seal pupwill melt your heart.
Gjoa Haven carvers love to be mischievous and unpredictable.
Every art collector should have a Gjoa Haven sculpture in their collection.
Take a chance.
