My mother, Diane Solie Smith, was an accomplished writer and artist and a big inspiration to me.
I collected the stories she wrote for the newspaper in the 70’s about life in a Northern town and compiled them in the book The Way It Used To Be.
My mother, Diane Solie Smith, was an accomplished artist, prolific watercolorist and carver in British Columbia. She was always an inspiration.
This book is the collection of watercolors that she called “her kids.” The images are collected here along side line drawings for you to color.
