Original Toronto Star caption: As never taken an art lesson; but 65-year-old Naomi Leckie Rd; has drawerful of prizes and ribbons she has won at art shows througout southern Ontario. She began her painting career five years ago. The tiny grandmother works only with a palette knife in oils and acrylics. She concentrates on rural scenes and hopes to sell enough to finance a second trip overseas to give her further inspiration. [Incomplete]
