The forest lover

From an early age, it's clear that Emily isn't like her sisters --- not satisfied with the pious and rigid world she is expected to fit into. Drawn to the danger and beauty of a vast wilderness and its people, Emily defies her family's better judgement and establishes herself as an art teacher, venturing off into British Columbia to paint the native tribal villages. From illegal potlachs in Mikwamlis to prewar Paris, where her art was exhibited in the famed Salon D'Automne, to her emergence as a great artist and contemporary to the likes of Frida Kahlo and Georgia O'Keefe, Emily and her journey as an artist are as arresting as they are vibrant.
