Note:

“There is no word for art. We say it is to transfer something from the real to the unreal. I am an owl, and I am a happy owl. I like to make people happy and everything happy. I am the light of happiness and I am a dancing owl.”
Kenojuak Ashevak (Landmarks of Canadian Art by Peter Mellen; Mclelland & Stewart, 1978)
