ODE CLASSIFIEDS*** (j(j) worth looking into!
Artist: History posters
will feature her painting
» Continued from Page 1
Her three children have moved
out of the house, and she has filled
their rooms with half-finished art
pieces as well.
Stubbs said she has finished some
pieces years after she began them.
She was born and raised in Port
land and will be the first person in
her immediate family to earn a col
lege degree. She said she is happy
to have the opportunity to attend
the University.
“We didn’t have any mind to
say, ‘We're going to college when
we graduate,’ because we knew
our parents couldn’t afford it,”
Stubbs said of her childhood in a
black community in Portland.
Yvonne married Carl Stubbs and
made several attempts to go to
school. She tried to keep a full-time
job and attending school, but she
didn’t have the time and couldn’t
afford to reduce her hours at work.
Finally, she got financial aid.
“I’ve worked in accounting and
bookkeeping, but I’ve always tried
to pursue my art,” she said.
She belonged to several art
groups and showed her award
winning work in Washington and
in several Oregon cities. Now that
she is in school, Stubbs said her
paintings mean more to her.
“I always felt like there was
something missing out of my
paintings before I came back to
school,” Stubbs said. “By coming
back to school, I’ve learned a lot
about my painting.”
Thematic ideas constantly oc
cur to Stubbs, and she keeps a
notebook to write them down so
she won’t forget. She writes about
her history, her future and her
family in the notebook.
Stubbs has learned that she can
paint anything. She doesn’t have
a single theme in her work.
“Everything inspires me,” Stubbs
said. “People inspire me to paint.”
In particular, Stubbs is inspired
by members of the Bethel Temple
Church, where she is a member.
“That’s a theme I want to get go
ing in my life,” Stubbs said.
From portraits to flowers,
Stubbs said she likes to paint all
kinds of subjects.
“It’s really hard at first," she
said, "but if you keep struggling
and try to seek ways to get better,
you can perfect it.”
Stubbs’ favorite painting is
called “Coming Out." It will be on
display in the EMU Fir Room until
Nov. 14 for Kwanzaa. The piece
features her favorite civil rights
leaders, Martin Luther King, Jr.
and Malcolm X.
"I like to do history stuff,”
Stubbs said, “but I don't limit my
self. I like people in general, and I
like history in general."
Being artistic is part of her na
ture, Stubbs said. As an artist, she
describes herself as a realist.
Her friends describe her as an
educator.
“She has a really deep sentirnent
of the past and of the future,” senior
Yolanda Domond said. “Through
her work, she educates all of us.”
Junior Jessica Billingslea said she
likes the beauty of “Coming Out.”
“Hike seeing the accomplishment
unfold,” she said. “It’s really nice. ”
“Coming Out,” which took five
months to complete, will be used
by the Black Student Union as a
poster for Black History Month.
“The woman that is dancing in
this picture shows coming out,”
Stubbs said with a smile. “We’re
free.”
Speaker: Ramos-Horta
asks for U.S. leadership

frustrating. After the U.N. Securi
ty Council unanimously demand
ed “Indonesia withdraw from East
Timor without delay,” he said.
“The same members who voted for
that resolution, I’m speaking par
ticularly of arms-producing coun
tries, they continued to sell arms to
the country [Indonesia] that was
violating their resolution.”
Regardless, Ramos-Horta said
there is hope for sovereignty in
East Timor through total demilita
rization, a plan he said could lead
to an honorable way out for Gener
al Suharto, president of Indonesia,
and peace for the East Timorese.
Hiroko Nakamura, the founder
and director of Free East Timor,
said Ramos-Horta puts a face on
human rights issues.
“Students and other people really
need to meet a person who has been
working on human rights issues for
his whole life,” she said. “I really
wanted people here to meet some
one who has lost most of his family
and risked death for human rights. ”
He ended the speech with a plea
for U.S. pressure on Indonesia. "It is
now a time of crisis in Indonesia and
in the region,” Ramos-Horta said.
“You must show the leadership and
give every kind of assistance to the
economies in the region.”
The assistance should be cou
pled with “every pressure possible”
on Suharto to change his regime’s
violent and corrupt ways, he said.
The speech was followed by a can
dlelight vigil in memory of the Timo
rese who died in the Santa Cruz
cemetery massacre six years ago.
