Ethel Curry's life and works

Abstract

Born in 1902, Ethel Curry lived a rich and productive life as an artist with much of her subject matter being influenced by her love of the Haliburton area and the forest in particular. This paper presents a detailed biographical picture of Ethel Curry, concentrating on her "sense of place", an important aspect of bioregional theory. The main aspects of bioregional theory are explored with reference to the life and work of Curry as well as that of other artists.
