Winter Landscape by Maud Lewis

"Maud Lewis did not let nature limit her representations of the world around her.  In this painting, there are trees with brightly colored fall leaves in a winter landscape."  — from The Illuminated Life of Maud Lewis by Lance Woolaver.

I don't feature a lot of folk art here.  It's not my favorite style, but I find Canadian painter Maud Lewis's fearless, joyful work irresistable.

Read more about the colorful life she built in the face of poverty and poor health.  Truly amazing.
