(1902—1980)
Alma Rumball grew up in a pioneering family in Muskoka, Ontario. She became a clairvoyant recluse at the age of fifty after seeing a vision of Jesus. Under the direction of a spirit guide, she became a prolific creator of coloured pen-and-ink spiritual drawings.

Rumball’s work has been exhibited in Canada, the United States, Mexico, England, China, France, Austria, Italy, and Australia. A documentary film, The Alma Drawings (2005), won an award at the Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival.
