- Notice biographique
- Although it is not known when she moved to Victoria, Gladys Woodward offered watercolour classes in the Victoria Times Colonist in 1928. A landscape painter, Woodward was an active member of the Island Arts and Crafts Society, participating in group exhibitions between 1932 and 1943. She was one of a number of signatories to boycott the National Gallery of Canada in 1932 because of existing exhibition and purchase policies related to Canadian artists. Woodward also exhibited at the Vancouver Art Gallery in most years between 1932 and 1943. Her works are held at the Royal BC Museum.
