From Ben Loman to the Sea – Poem by Lance Woolaver with paintings by Maud Lewis 

The art of Maud Lewis is among Canada's greatest treasures.  Though she lived in conditions of abject poverty and was crippled by severe arthritis, her creative imagination soared above these difficult circumstances. Sitting by the window of her tiny house near Digby, Nova Scotia, Lewis painted sunny scenes of idyllic rural life, filled with brilliant colours, gentle animals, and cheerful domesticity.  Despite her humble background, Lewis's joyful paintings achieve a quality of emotion and beauty reached only in the greatest art - an achievement befitting Canada's most beloved folk artist.
