The Gallery at L.E. Shore’s Arts and Culture Council (ACC) is honored to present an exhibition celebrating the work of the late artist, Joan Folinsbee Timmins.

The exhibition will explore works from a multi-decade career: abstract and realistic, large scale and small; landscapes, portraits, still-life, abstracts and figure drawings in many mediums - watercolour, acrylics, oils, pastels, pen and ink.

This is a peek into Joan’s life as an artist. It's a journey in time, place and creative growth; the roller coaster ride of a unique individual.
