Mary Pratt is, without a doubt, one of my favourite Canadian women artists. I can't imagine what life and creating looked like, under the massive shadow that Christopher's lifestyle and fame must have cast. Yet, her works radiate, exuding light. Brillance. #art #Canadiana #MaryPratt

She married another artist.
He slept with their 19 year old nanny. When Mary discovered this, her portrait of their nanny (who modelled for both of them) was devastating.
