Without a doubt, one of the most popular activities for
children at any gathering is face painting. We are thrilled to have one of the
most popular face painters in Nova Scotia as part
of the Elizabeth Bishop Festival, on 8 August 2015, in Great Village, N.S.:
Susan Kerslake.

Here is the bio blurb Susan has given me to use in this
profile: “Susan Kerslake has been face painting forever, starting at the IWK Hospital
with poster paint and Nivea cream. Times have changed but face painting has not
lost its allure.”

But I must add, Susan has been a member of the Elizabeth
Bishop Society of Nova Scotia
for many years. She has also been one of the most faithful supporters of the
Elizabeth Bishop House, especially volunteering at the Help Heat Her Home
fund-raisers. In another life (and still in this one, too), Susan is a
wonderful writer. We are delighted that she will bring her artistic skills to
the festival.
