Dawn McCracken

Dawn McCracken (1935-2013)

Dawn McCracken's paintings are a gift to all those who love the New Brunswick landscape. A meticulous, gifted painter whose passion for the beauty around her is so evident in her work. It is with great sadness that we say good bye to her friendship and generosity, her perpetual compassion for the creatures of the wild, her wit and intellect. We are blessed to cherish her legacy in her artwork.
