Artist's Description
This "Inukshuk" is one of dozens that dot the rocky landscape of the Canadian Shield as you drive along TransCanada Highway, north of Barrie, Ontario. Traditional stone markers such as these are found throughout the Arctic regions. Those shaped to resemble a human form are called "inunnguaq" - one of which is incorporated into the logo for the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. These stone structures have come to be recognized in Canadian culture as symbols of welcome and friendship. You'll find a very informative short video about Inuksuit (plural) at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKQ97rOwBH0
About Peggy King
While art, whether it be drawing or painting or creating in clay, was my first love all through my younger years, after high school I went into a secretarial course at college. The following year I left school altogether, married and started my family. As a stay-at-home-Mom I found my creative outlet in crafts of all descriptions, and in cake decorating and the 'confectionery arts' which I also taught for more than 25 years from my home. Many of my greatest friends today were introduced to me as they sat at my dining room table decades ago in those classes. About 2008, I set aside the icing bags and picked up the paint brushes again! At the same time I began taking pictures with the intent of using them as reference for future...
