~ Nora Reid ~
oil, watercolor

     For artist Nora Reid, nature is her teacher.

     Several times each week, she takes excursions into the countryside to find wildflowers in bloom, which she reproduces in pencil and watercolour sketches. Each plant is researched and identified carefully. Nora has filled several large sketchbooks with nature illustrations, which she uses in her formal compositions.

     Working in oils on canvas, Nora has painted many scenes of Manitoba, from Hudson Bay to the prairies. Her most challenging and creative work is that of floral compositions, using antique vases with wildflowers or blossoms from her garden. Nora has participated in many art exhibitions and has been a feature artist several times. Her work may be found in gift shops and several art galleries in Manitoba.
