The Collection of Torben V. Kristiansen, Vancouver


From 1948 to 1949, Varley taught at the Doon Summer School of Fine Arts in Doon, south of Kitchener, Ontario, based in Homer Watson’s former studio-home. This was a happy time for Varley – the countryside was a tonic to him, the students idolized him, and he was able to produce a substantial number of works.
