Maud Lewis lived with Everett in a tiny house from 1938 until her death in 1970. Maud painted on any surface she could - walls, mirrors, wallpaper and household items such as bread boxes and tea canisters; she even painted their cast-iron stove! She sold paintings to raise money for income, so the house itself (the original now residing at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia) is seen as the one work of art Maud painted for herself. The replica house is true-to-scale and is just outside Digby, near her where the original home stood.
