Maud Lewis (1903–1970) became a celebrated Nova Scotia folk artist through small, brightly coloured paintings she sold from her home. This book gathers photographs, reproductions and brief biographical text that reveal her creative world.

Published by Nimbus Publishing in 1996, the 112-page volume pairs archival images with faithful reproductions of her signature scenes—simple landscapes, interiors and figures—and explains how her work reached both local audiences and collectors.

Suitable for collectors, students and anyone interested in Canadian folk and outsider art, the text focuses on Lewis's sources, methods and the charm of her visual language.
