Paul Kavik is one of the most renowned and established Inuit artists alive today in Sanikiluaq. He has been carving for almost 40 years and has been represented in countless art exhibitions around the world. His pieces are very sought after by art galleries on a global scale. Paul Kavik is a very dynamic carver in that he will carve just about anything. He prefers to carve animals and birds such as dogs, wolves, fox, loons, ducks and polar bears. All of his carvings are real masterpieces and are valued very high.
This sophisticated Loon is an absolutely amazing piece. My eyes popped out when I first saw it due to the share blackness of the piece. Black argelite stone that is so pure and deep like this is such a rarity. The intensity it adds is immense moreover than any other colour. Furthermore, the curves, proportions and lines are all spectacular. The uniform black stone is the main attraction of this piece.
This stunning carving comes with an Igloo Tag (Certified of Authenticity) and it is signed on the bottom by the artist.
