Emily Carr reminds me very much of Grace Carpenter Hudson, who lived in Ukiah around the same time. I think I've got someone talked into doing a Ukiah Daily Photo blog within a few months, but here's a link to the museum:

Benjamin, the tip about the zoom function on my camera has changed my life. Thank you.
nice house and at first look it is just one of the ordinary houses.
Dong, thanks for your comment and also for your insights into the Philippines in your blog.
USElaine - Thanks for the links to Ukiah - Haiku and Grace Hudson. Yes, she does appear to have had a lot in common with Emily Carr
