Notice anything familiar 🤍🦌

Such a beautiful scene that I resonated with growing into who we want to become, and how I felt a lot becoming an artist and actually sharing my Work publicly!

Dawn of an era, July 23,2026

It’s been a while, I’ve been so happily busy with my work doing really great contracts and really enjoying myself lately! I also I’m trying to give myself time to do art for myself, and I was so inspired by the hats Hennins. I’ve always adored how they looked and always made me think of princesses or mediaeval fashion, so that’s what I decided to do for this piece. Also, when I was almost done the piece I wanted to give it more of a sepia look to tie in the aged look of the work.

CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

🩵 Qulliq Kit Giveaway 🩵

Over the course of this past winter, as I shared registration posts for my qulliq-making workshops, I heard from many Inuit who wished they could attend but lived too far away. Those conversations reminded me that many Inuit living outside Inuit Nunangat can have limited access to Inuit cultural programming.

I’d like to do something small to help.

I’ll be gifting one Traditional Qulliq Making Kit to an Inuk living outside Inuit Nunangat, within Canada, and mailing it to them so they can make their own qulliq at home.

To enter:

🩵 Like this post.
🩵 Share this post to help it reach more Inuit who may be interested.
🩵 Comment below telling me what receiving a Traditional Qulliq Making Kit would mean to you and where you currently live.

One recipient will be selected at random from eligible entries.

The draw will take place on July 30 at 4:00 p.m. MT.

Qujannamiik to everyone who has supported Ikumaju and helped build such a welcoming community. I hope this is the first of many opportunities to help share Inuit knowledge with those who may not otherwise have access. 🕯️🤍
