Pair of Ink Eskimo Dance Prints-Willy Topkok, signed. 6.5''H x 4.5''W, matted and framed. 1) Yupik Woman's Fan Dance. 2) Yupik Owl Dance. Yupik people are Eskimo from Western Alaska. Topkok's talents extend beyond scrimshaw to watercolor paintings. These, he says, are influenced by his ivory etchings. Later he makes prints from the originals, as well as notecards. As a child he listened to stories his grandmother told and that is the origin of his ideas.
