Paulette McCrea Raabe was born and raised in Quebec City and spent her early career as a Registered Nurse working in Northern Ontario and Northern Quebec. She moved to Southern Ontario in 1982, eventually settling just outside the picturesque town of Bethany, Ontario. When Paulette retired in 2007, she took up her paint brushes, turning a life-long passion for art into her day-to-day reality. She hasn’t looked back since! She is pictured here with her granddaughter, Beatrice.
