Attracting considerable atten
tion and curiosity in . the art 'cen
ter the past .week has been" the
"Lady Painter,, who occupies the
end hall gallery. Five feet high
and of monumental size, she is not
destined - to remain . long, in her
present cramped quarters. She
was made to fill a greater role as
the main feature of the Art Cen
ter float in the cdmlng Centennial
parade. Striking piece of sculp
ture, "The Lady Painter? repre
sents a kneeling figure, holding a
palette In which she is mixing
paint, according to the best tradi
tions of well trained Art .Center
students. " Reclining . at her side
is the figure of a dog. '
The construction of the figure
Is particularly Interesting, because
it is a framework of wood, pad-
ded with paper and excelsior, fol
lowed- I'wlth 1 a finish5 of ""casting
plaster.' and sawdust mixed to
build " out the forms. The ' com
pleted effect will be that of color
ed stone.- Central attraction' of
the art center float, "The Lady
Painter" will be surrounded by
children; Other features, of the
float will be worked out In de
tail in the next few days. ' ' -.
. Benjamin' Wagner, . staff car
penter, helped with the building
and construction under the super
vision of Clarence Bates, Art Cen
ter instructor in sculpture, ..who
designed the figure; and the rest
of the float. .
The Art center' broadcast on
Tuesday will mark the second in
a series of programs dealing with
various phases of the Salem. Cen
tennial celebration. T o m ra y
