Biographical history
Ethel Field was born in Teewater, Ontario. She was educated and began her teaching career in that province before moving to Edmonton with her father in 1914. Ethel taught at schools in the Highlands, Beverly and North Edmonton for 30 years. She was best known as an artist, and joined the Edmonton Art Club in 1929, later becoming an honorary member. She was also a member of the Canadian Federation of Artists. Unlike many members of the Edmonton Art Club, she rarely offered her works for sale at club exhibitions. When she died in 1975, over one hundred of her paintings in pastel, oil, and watercolour were sold at auction. She was survived by her sister Myrtle Field Burrill.
