Emily Carr's Surprise

I've been painting down by the lake in my funky little 60s trailer, I bring Gorjuss with me and she snuffles around ecstatically while I work. I'm really getting into the trees and shadows. Emily Carr's autobiography also keeps me company - to be read while my washes are drying. In the book, I was delighted to see a faded photo of her working in a dumpy old trailer like mine! She has a monkey on her shoulder and a shit-eating grin. Hey! I have a deershit-eating white shepherd. ;-)
