Soroseelutu (Sorosiluto) Ashoona (1941-2011)

If it weren’t for Pitseolak, my mother-in-law, I don’t think I would have ever learned to draw.  For a long time, she kept asking me to try but because I was afraid to try, it wasn’t until a year later that I started. Sometimes I try to do some pictures of stories I have heard about the old days. Sometimes it seems when I begin to draw that not on purpose, I am drawing the same thing I have done before.  Sometimes when I see the finished print, I can’t really remember when I did the drawing but I like the prints better than the drawings because of the colours.
