Paintings of Twenty Oregon
Artists, Now on Display -.
in Salem
'Twenty Oregon artists, all well-
known throughout the 'United
States and'many of them In Enr-l
ope, axe represented in the later
eating display which Is being
shown this week in a Court street
room of the Senator hotel building.
Other Interest ir- features of the
exhibit are eiglit paintings shown
by Ralph Gilbert, a local artist who
t . . -
is winning prominence in oiner
parts of the country, block prints
made by Dr. Mary C. Rowland of
Salem, and tapestries, painted by
Miss Gertrude Savage, also of Sa
lem. .
A table of excellent photographs
shown by the Kennell Ellis studio
Is the subject of much interest.
The Drake studio of Silvexton and
Gunnell-Robb studio of Salem' al
so have displays. "
A portfolio . of water-c o 1 o r
sketches of Florens Clarke of Port
land are one of the 'loveliest fea
tures of the entire exhibit. These
eight charming sketches are very
similar to her quaint Illustrations
in Theodore Harper's "The Mush-1
room Boy" and others of his
books. Mrs. Clarke is particularly
interested in children, but she la
equally successful in other branch
es of art. Her 1 series of pictures
illustrating Indian legends are
published in the Sunday edition of
the Oregon Journal.
Another interesting artist, Mel
ville T. Wire of Pendleton, has two
canvases. "Morning on the Dunes"
and another eastern Oregon scene
included in the exhibit. Dr. Wire
was a student in the art depart
ment of Willamette University, un
der the tutelage of Miss Marie
Craig from whom he received his
first encouragement in oil paint
ing. After moving to The Dalles
in 1908 he began painting out of
doors. Sand dunes and the eage
orush country of the eastern part
of the state have always had great
appeal for this artist.
Dr. Wire has had paintings
hung in exhibitions of art In Port
land, Seattle, and San "Francisco
He Is pastor of the First Metho
dist church at Pendleton.
Two other usually attractive
paintings of the First Methodist
paintings are "Eucalyptis" and
'Montigny Sur Lolng" painted by
Alfred Schroff, head of the Fine
Arts Department at the University
of Oregon. Mr. Schroff has a di
ploma from the Beaux Arts at Fon-
tainbleu for frescois. He w a s
awarded the first prize at Seattle
and in Springville, Utah. He also
won the medal for stained glass
at the World's Columbian Exhi
bition.
These are only three of the 20
alented artists who have beautiful
paintings banging in the exhibit.
Mrs. Alice H. Dodd gave an in
teresting talk yesterday afternoon
an the successive steps that an ar
tist must make in painting a pic
ture. She said that unless an ar
tist has the divine gift study will
e of little use.
The six steps which Mrs. Dodd
save as necessary for the comple
tion of a picture are selection of a
subject, rejection of unnecessary
bjects in the picture, careful ar
rangement, emphasis of the sub
ject. Idealism, and interpretation.
Mrs. Dodd considers painting the
most difficult form of artistic ex
pression. She feels that the mod-
:rn paintings lack emphasis. Every
jicture, according to the speaker,
s painted from one of three geo
metric plans: a circle, a trianre.
