Reference
artist's name from consignor; according to the consignor 'Here is Pangnark at play. His characteristic abstraction presents a touching family scene, five people of perhaps three generations. The largest is 3.5 inches. George Arluk visited Pangnark while he was working, went home, then returned with the dog to complete the family - a classic collaboration!'

Provenance
