brush of Mr.. George Timme, is skilfully

brush of Mr.. George Timme, is skilfully
executed.
"Sheep." in Mr.. .Lininger's collection, by
Mrs. X. A. Willis, is u creditable affair
a good copy Of an excellent study. Perhaps
the gulls floating around the center piece
could be dispensed with
"a Corrie in Skyea is also q we'll executed
copy of a good subject.
The water color part of the exhibition, in
Guiding the architectural drawings, include
on the average fewer undesirable features
than the oil side. This is the more remarka-
BILE because painting in water colors is much
more difficult than in oils, though less i'm
pressive to the ordinary eye. The modern
methods of directly expressing the natural
tints with the hair pencil, opposed
g ito With hs tSs der reed practice anS Of Of uSs T9ra
in color, instead of lining with the pen, have
rendered manipulatons more difficult and
the result decidedly more artistic. 1t IS
gratifying, therefore, to find in this exhibit
tlon such examples as those of Mr.. Frederic
Knight, diversified in subject, and all evil
dencing both artistic sense in conception
and trained care in execution.
The gem of the water color display is
"Pansles" by Miss Nellie Rosewater.
Miss reana McLennan's italian Girl" Is
gracefully and delicately treated.
A pug dogs head, under the brush of Miss
X. Il. Pettis, IS truthfully delineated, and 1T
is to be regretted that tho body should de-
vas.
The crayon and pastel work is fair, but no
particular example could be selected.
In clay modelling the Girl and Ducksn of
of Mrs c. w. Holmes, and "MeadOW Larkh
of Mrs. Lawton l.. Singer, give promise of
some development
Council Bluffs is we'll represented by
