A History of Peel County: To Mark Its Centennary*
During the seventeen years Dorothy Pullen has been teaching art in Brampton, just over six hundred students have studied in her studio home.
Mrs. Pullen, who came to Brampton to England in 1948, studied drawing and painting at the Chelsea College of Art, London, and at the Technical College in Bournemouth. In the latter school she also studied ceramics under a pottery master, and worked for him privately for two years, making original, hand-thrown ceramic articles.
She has exhibited her work in Brampton, the United States and England, but with the number of students she teaches, and the ease with which she sells her paintings in her gallery, she has little time to submit her work to art show any more.
