Show PASTEL EXHIBIT At Woodruff School Something Some-thing Exceptionally Good. The exhibit of pastel work at the Woodruff school Thursday was highly creditable to tho school, the pupil artists ar-tists and Miss Cassldy, principal and Instructress. Thirty large pieces of crayon work framed and displayed to the greatest advantage, and the walls hung with other work In black and white made the room most attractive. Tho woik could probably be criticised by an cxpeit, but considering that the artists are but eighth grade pupils and did the work with but little help on the part of Miss Cassldy, It cor-talnlylsexceptlonal cor-talnlylsexceptlonal beyond criticism. Scenes In which naturo was the subject were truly charming, the vivid yet harmoniously blended coloring giving an effect that It seems Impossible Impos-sible young artists should get. In their quiet, serene beauty they appealed ap-pealed to the lover of nature very strongly and many were tho words of highest commendation and pleasure. Those who had exhibits of this kind were Zettle Kicks, Ulanche Benson, Gladys Davis, Olive Cressal, Helen Groesbeck, Pearl Stratford, Emma Grlftln, Zettle Turner, Julie Hendricks, Hen-dricks, Winnie Cole, Inez Thaln, Gertrude Ger-trude Smith. Scenes in which the sea and shore furnished the subject were presented by Florence Machen, Nevova Haws, Joseph Otte, Myrtle Smith and Julie Hendricks. One of thcse.a lighthouse scene, and that of Joseph Otte, a full-rigged full-rigged ship, are of exceptional merit. Otte Is said to have extraordinary artistic ar-tistic ability. Animal life was pictured by Julie Hendricks, Carl Peterson and Gus-tave Gus-tave Fjelstrom, the latter's work probably being the best in the exhibit. ex-hibit. He presented two pictures, one of four .kittens, the other two dogs. Edna Hrossard had two pictures In the exhibit, one of an overturned basket bas-ket of peaches and another of a lone frontlcismau on a worn out pony. Tills latter work was best for the scope of the work undertaken. Veda Parkinson had a Miry nice .picture of .in old mill. All this work was done by the pupils while at home, under the instruction of Miss Cassldy, and with few exceptions excep-tions the work was finished by them ready for exhibit. |
