A fascinating look at the lives of WWII servicewomen: https://www.warmuseum.ca/mollylambbobak/#
Molly Lamb Bobak was the first female Canadian artist sent overseas to document the Second World War, and her work provides a rare glimpse into the lives of a groundbreaking group of women in the Canadian army.
Molly Lamb Bobak joined the Canadian Women's Army Corps in 1942 after graduating from art school, seeking adventure and hoping to be noticed as a war artist.
The Canadian War Museum in Ottawa has now created an online exhibit of Bobak's work, helping raise the profile of an artist who sought to capture and elevate the day-to-day lives of the nearly 50,000 women who served in the Canadian army, navy and air force.
