do their own thing. They're
artists. They're alsoxnarried. . ,
$ One thing is forty certain and
that is - you can't label them.
'You can meet them and you
can see their work. It'll be
displayed at ' the ° Goderich
_Public Library-' for an-
proximately two more weeks.
Their exhibition may even
lead to more cultural ac-
. tivities for Goderich.
'Bill Partride, Huron
County `: PiiTilic '::Librarian;
says, The exhibition which.
began March 1.3 "seemed like
positive thing,"
• "People le onthe Wholewere
intere's'ted in se in ,what the
artists .Were larelkand what
.was,. being. 'displayed,".` he
, said.
• Both artists in the husband
• and wife,team have a feeling
for "landscape, something
difficult to get away from
when you've: lived in the
Prairie provinces...Each has• a •
different way' of expressing
this 'and each is continually
trying new methods and
approaches • to . art... In a
general description of their
work, Ron called it _mainly
surrealistic'. The only way to
really judge isto see for
yourself. -
As for the artists, Ron•
Waiker,. was .; born in'
Saskatoon, SaskatlrheWan; in
1937. He studied under R6y
