Bern Will Brown was a very talented painter as well,i have one of his prints hanging on my wall...it is the print of Colville Lake Nwt with an Eskimo paddling a kayak and a huge ice berg as a background...numbered 124 of 295..dated Aug 9th 1987 and signed by him.
Sorry for the little de-rail here,but i just had to add that his talent for painting was something else..my wife received it as a going away present from her work when we left Inuvik...he was a very respected man in the North.
