Joe Norris was a Canadian folk artist who painted images of his environment in Lower Prospect, Nova Scotia and places he learned about through television in crisp shapes, strong design and bright colour. He created wall paintings and painted furniture as well as models of villages, boats and lighthouses. In 2000 Bernard Riordon, the director of the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, called him one of the greatest folk artists in Nova Scotia, a "Nova Scotia icon and a national treasure". Another museum
