FORMER ROSEBURG
RESIDENT HAS FINE
ART EXHIBIT IN PORTLAND
Of Interest to friends in Rose
burg was the announcement in
the Portland Oregonian last week
that Amanda Snyder, Portland
artist, and a former resident of
this city, Is enjoying her first
one-man show of paintings and
clown dolls at the Khoarouba gal
lery In Portland. The showing,
which will continue for another
two weeks, includes landscapes,
still life, portraits and circus
scenes and displays a versatility
of her work. All show unusual
use of color.
Mrs. Snyder, who Is a former
Roseburg resident, is a sister of
Mrs. Kenneth Padelford of this
city; Jeff Tester of Mew York,
famous painter and cartoonist,
and Redford Tester of Portland.
Mrs. Padelford left this week for
Portland to attend the exhibit and
visit her sister.
In addition to her paintings,
which are sought by collectors,
Mrs. Snyder, eight years ago,
branched Into her other line of
art "making clown dolls. No ir
dlnary rag dolls, the Manda
Clowns, as she has named them,
are so different that a patent on
their construction nas been ap
plied for. Of felt and India cotton,
the clowns have puppet -like
joints which perm.'l very human
movement.
"The clowns, all alike, were
evolved from Raggety Ann and
Raggety Andy dolls, which Mrs.
Snyder started making in 1941.
But even tnose were very anier-
ent from the regular commercial
patterns, because she just
couldn't stand to do things the
way other people do.'"
Mrs. Snyder s painting, which
is done in her basement, shows
use of pallet, rags and fingers,
but rarely brushes. Particularly
evident in her paintings is the
circus theme, which provides, not
only a variety of Interests but
color,
'Louis Bunce, member of the
Portland Art museum faculty, is
handling the show of paintings
and clowns at the gallery. With
his help Mrs. Snyder hopes to
sell the clowns in New York and
Hollywood and eventually on a
nation-wide basis. When this be
comes a reality, the making of
the clowns will be turned over to
a factory. The clowns, which re
quire eight hours apiece, but'this
Is just 'play' to offset the long
hours that go Into the painting of
such magnificient oils as are be
ing shown at the exhibit."
