Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: At home on the bluffs: Landscape artist Doris McCarthy sits at her easel on the Scarborough Bluffs, but the Scarborough painter does much of her work in her studio home overlooking the Bellamy Ravine. She also travels far afield for her inspiration. Her paintings of the Rockies and the high Arctic are on display at the Cedar Ridge Gallery.
