Eskimo Stroll at 50 Below


This particular painting was painted from a photo that was taken near Pele Bay which is near Hudson's Bay in the eastern Arctic. You can tell that this day is very cold because of the way the parkas are pulled tight around their faces. It was probably in the neighbourhood of 50 to 60 degrees below zero and that is without windchill added to the temperature.


This painting won first prize at the Allied Arts Council Open Art Competition in the Advanced Category 2008
