While the catalogue was never meant to capture the entirety of Knowles’ artist career, Terry Fenton organizes a thorough exhibition covering the last two decades of her work. It was in part due to Knowles enrollment at the Banff School that she was able to achieve a greater level of confidence in her artist skill. Through both essay and art work, Terry Fenton has been able to share the legacy of Dorothy Knowles.
