| pictures of scenes among the sand hills.
They are full of light and color and show
conscientious work.
The last picture she produced is a scene

the trees in strong relief against it are rich
In color. The light striking the grass ID

Donald deV. Graham has put in the
whole summer to outdoor Sketching. He
has been to several different localities. hut
bis best work was done not many miles
from the city.
A small picture entitled 'In Alameda
Creek" is charming bit of color. There
Is not much to the picture. Only small
schooner sailing over the quiet waters,
with the lowlands in the distance. But 1t
is painted with great feeling, and the senti-
ment OF color is we'll portrayed.
Oscar Kunath has done considerable ont
door work during the summer. but has been
busy at portraits and figures in his studio
most of the time. His figure work has all
been of an ambitious nature, and the pict-
nre entitled The Sleeping Model" is we'll
drawn and painted, as well as having some
motive. 1t is strong in color and pleasing
in effect.
Mr.. Kunath's studies of heads are his
strong points, as ne says himself. His nor
traits are all acknowledged to be good
llkenesses and most artistic in effect. Some
of his work at painting hair is the best he
has done. He gets the soft, fluffy effect, and
at the same time keeps the richness of
color. His fancy heads are always pleas
ing and there is some character in the
faces. His flesh cooring is strong and
pure, and has pulry quality seldom seen.
de has turned out several fancy heads
during the summer and has sent several of
them TO the Sacramento exhibition.
c. c. JudsOn has been working along
the streams and In the woodlands of the
Alameda hills and has obtained several
excellent pictures. One of these is en-
titled Diamond Canyon" and it is a
strong piece of landscape painting. In a
portion of the picture there is clump of
trees with the sunlight shining through
the foliage that Is most excellent piece of

work to Boulder Greek ana several pict-
uresque localities in Marin and Son oma
counties. He has worked almost eXclu-
siveiy In water-colOrs, and has turned out
several pictures in his usual style.
His largest work is entitlad ION Boulder
Creek" and /, is a bit of landscape paint
ing that is strongly characteristic Of the
locality. ANYBODY who had ever seen
Bouider Creek would recognize the portion
OF country in which the picture was
painted.
The picture shows portion of the creek
where the stream is very narrow, and rich
moss-eovered rocks lie half buried in the
clear water In the distance tall redwoods
rear their heads in the soft warm mist. In
the foreground the trunk of giant of the
forest rises from bank of grass and
weeds and several smaller trees are
broken and lying about in confusion. The
picture is strong in color, we'll drawn and
true to nature.
Mr. Fishers other pictures painted dur
ing the summer are all in the same style.
Ihs colors are clear and pure ana the
general effect shows a strong sympathy
with nature and desire on the part of the
artist to paint what he sees.
G. ID. Robinson has put in his summer
along the coast and given special atten-
ton to marine subjects. He has studied
nature in her ever-changiDg phases.
His largest work is entitled MORO
Rock" 1t shows that peculiar volcanic
rtck formation about half an hour after
sunset. In the middle distance group
OF picturesque fishing boats are hauled up
on the sand. To the right of the rock the
Pacific Ocean stretches in grand eXpanse,
curling its roaring breakers on the gray.

in the foreground give life to the picture.
but its whole sugges ton is that OF peace
and quiet.
Another marine scene by Mr.. Robinson
Is view of the ocean beach. south of the
Cliff House. 1t is strong piece of work,
cool and refreshing in color.
Miss Froelich has done considerable out
door work during the summer and her
efforts indicate that she has grasped the
spirit of nature. She has worked along

artistic pictures with a strong likeness.
and Mr. PisSiS has also been at work on n
couple of large pictures, but they are not
far enough advanced for ANYTHING tn be
said about them.
Miss Morrison has devoted her entira
summer to pictures of scenes at the Mid
winter Fair. During the time of the ey-
hiblt;on she made careful studies of the
buildings and grounds, and OF the effects
Of light and atmosphere. Several of these
she has worked up into pictures that are
graphic representations of the fair grounds
when they appeared at their best
MIR. Latimer has been out of town for
short time only but be has had his psuaI
class that has worked in the vicinity of
San francisco during the whole summer
Such pictures as he has worked on have
been in his usual style. They show the
interior of redwood forests. and are
painted as no other artist IN this locality
ever painted them.
Messrs. Coulter and Bloomer hava
closed up their old studio ON Market street
and gone on an extended tour over dif-
1erent parts OF the State. They will work
along The coast and also do considerable
stretching IN the interior. It is DossibIe
they will be absent from the CITY for
mouth or two yet.
c. Cadenasso has devoted himself dur
Ing the summer to his usual work-por-
traits and figures He is still working at
seVeral that are most excellent examples
of his style.
Taken as whole the work done by the
arllsis OF San francisco during the past
summer makes a most creditable showing.
LIZ every instance it shows an improve
ment over previous efforts, which is
good thing Tor thu future of art in this
city.

qualities. 1t is well drawn and the color
is pure and rich. 1t is painted very low in
key and the effect OF the flesh Of the old
face possesses a fine luminous quality.
Altogether 1t is pleasing and artistic and
graphic in treatment.
X. ID. Yelland has divided his summer
so 9s TO spend portions OF IL in different
rarts of the State. The earlier portion OF
the year he worked up around Mount
Shasta and at Castle Crags, ana obtained
considerable valuable material that he can
utilize IN his winter work. A portion of
July ana August he spent at Monterey,

One of the large pictures Mr.. Mathe VS.
painted during the Esummer Is entitled
I'm the Bay-wipdow.''
1t is in oil and painted quite high in
key. but the values are So we'll preserved
that the effect of sunlight is remarkably
clear and bright.
The subject is most simple one. A
young woman is seated in a rocking.chair
near an ODeT window. She is attired in a
white dress of soft muslin and fills the
whole corner with light. The figure
is nearly all in shadow, except a
small portion OF the skirt. which is struck
by ray of sunlight. Through an open
window view Of typical Southern Cali
fornia garden can be seen. The flowers
grow fresh and bright and the sun is
warm and clear.

great many have be- at work IN the quiet
pastoral bits to be ound near the city and
have made earnest stud ies Of what they
saw.
- The result as shown By tie large num-
Der of sketches brought back is moot en-
c6uraging. 1t shows that the artists have
studied consciensIons.v and andeavored to
obtain truth rather than mere pictorial ef-
feet. Some OF ha artists brought back

Lou Wall has devoted her whole summer

with strong artistic effect.

strong in color and ;he drawing is most
refined. The picture is full of feeling and
free from any effect of chalkiness. It is a
piece Of work of which Mr.. Mathews can
well be proud as it possesses great many
good qualities that are lacking in the
works of many well-known artists.
MT. Mathews outdoor studies, of which
be brought back large portfolio full, are
nearly all done in pastel. In these he has
sought to obtain a characteristic effect of
light and atmosphere peculiar 10 the cOun-
try around Santa Barbara rather than the
details of the various objects. He has
managed to catch the warm glow of sun
light that seems warmer an it really is
and is free of the white glare commonly
associated with that section of the State.

Arthur Mathews spent SIX weeks iE the
vicinity of Santa Barbara making studies
of the characteristic LANDSCAPES of the
country, and working on couple of large
figure pieces. All the work was done
direct from nature, and most o! IL is far
ahead of what MIR. Mathews has done in
the past. In some of has outdoor sketches
there is slight change in style noticeable.
The work is done in an easier manner

his art work to such an extent that he has
done very little beyond a few sketches.
Mr.. Stanten has accepted the management
of the art department of the State Fair
and left for Sacramento last Tuesday. He
took up considerable of the work of local
artists for exhibition and 1t is believed that
many of them will take prizes.
G. Won Gerichten has been at work on
portraits all summer and all his work is
great Improvement over what he has
done IN the past. He has just finished

done little outdoor sketching.
Emil Pissis has just started out on his
summer sketching tour, having been busy
with portraits for the last three months.
Some of the work he has done in this line
Is very creditable. He has combined

work. But the whole picture is creditable
and an advance over Mr.. Judson's previ-
Gus efforts.
Mrs. A. ChitteDden has put in busy
summer. She has done considerable work
in her studio, and worked at outdoor sub
jects whenever she had chance Most of
her portraits are done in pastel, and all are
very creditabe pieces of work. They are
rich in color, good in drawing and pleas
ing in effect. Mrs. Chittenden's outdoor
work is very ereditable, and she has Sc
cured several subjects that will make good
pictures.
Miss Evelyn Mccormack is still at Pa
cihc Grove. where she has spent the
greater portion of the summer. Those
who have heard from her says that She
has been doing considerable figure work ont
doors As well as landscape. She is at pres
ent working on several large pictures that
are somewhat of departure from her
usual style. Miss McCormaek's best work

character that have not been painted by
California artists 10 any great extent. Mr..
Yelland has high hopes of what he will do
in this line, and expects TO get out some
thing hat will surprise his brother artists.
In the way of finished pictures Mr.. Vel

motif from the Fruitvale meadows that
are a never-failing supply of good ma

MIR. Yelland has produced. He has at
present three or four other works OF a sim

promise good results.

The Picture is one of the stronpast
pieces o. work that Mr.. Joullin has done,

valuable in Mr.. Mathews winter works.
William Keith has not gone far from the
city for his summer studies, but has made
occasional excursions TO many of the pic
turesaue places close by and has also done
considerable work at portraits and figures.
Mr.. Keith is best known as landscape
painter, and the work he has done In that
line does not indicate any great departure
from his usual style, but rather stronger
development of 1t.
He has finished one very large picture
