The Gallery at L.E. Shore is pleased to present a retrospective exhibition of the late local artist, Willi Wildman, during the month of May.

Willi was a prolific landscape painter and a popular art instructor who lived in the Southern Georgian Bay region from the early 1980s until her death March, 2022.

The exhibition includes dozens of Wildman's paintings from various private collections. Willi’s works are informed by and brilliantly capture the quintessential character and moods of the natural terrain, expansive skies and mercurial waters of Georgian Bay.
