	DIGBY, NOVA SCOTIA: Maud Lewis, Nova Scotia Folk Artist (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
		Maud Lewis was born in Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia. As a child she was stricken with polio which crippled her arms, deformed her hands and affected her neck. She did not often raise her head, but when she did, her clear blue-grey eyes lit up her face like candles. She was small, slight and alert.
		They had no electricity, no running water and very likely they did not take the daily paper. But they did have a vegetable garden, the most beautiful sweetpeas, several cats, a dog, a tame crow and a fat trout, whose name was Fred, in the well.
		Noted Nova Scotia artist John Cook gave Maud full marks for composition and sense of perspective. He liked her broad lines and fresh ideas. Maud died in 1970, but her heart-warming paintings live on in public and private collections throughout the world.
