its object-that of being pleasing

The old masters sat for hours and
idealized every pretty face to such an
extent that It was at most perfect, but
the majority of people do not realize
the infinite amount OF patience. the
accomplishment that dainty perfection
of color requires, nor would they have
the patience and endurance to give
the sittings from life. I believe most
thoroughly in. beginning from life and
in putting in the greater part Of the
work the same. way, but there are
times when a good picture, frequent
ly snap shot, is quite as good and
/ do not know but just a little better.
The expression of the face is so elusive
and it changes so quickly that it is
frequently somewhat of a problem to
know which would make the most
charming picture. There is the sweet,
demure lool- the naughty, distin-

guished woman of the world. ths
quaint. old-fashioned. type and the
whimsical girl whose real character Is
so impossible to depict on canvas or
ivory.
But once chosen, the expression
must be strictly adhered to, and so
naturally working from the combina-
ton of portrait and life lessons the
strain of both artist and sitter and IS
infinitely more satisfactory in the long
run.
In painting. I much prefer to use
some simple evening frock Or better
vet a funny bit of material that will
drape softly and prettily over the
shoulders and arms. for in this way
the girl of long ago compares favor
ably with the one e'of to-day. In hats
there is just one style that adapts itself
splendidly to all times and all needs
and that is the artistic Gainsborough,
a thing of beauty in itself.
To my mind this fascinating minia-
ture cannot be too highly finished:
there cannot be too great a degree OF
perfection OF course, this means
hours of labor and of the most
trying kind. too. but it is well worth
the struggle-that is, if one wishes to
make success Of 1t.

should be q little something more. OF
course, everything should remain SUBJ
ordinate TO the likeness, but the pos
sioilities for daintiness and prettiness
are so great that it always seems a
shame to me not to take advantage
of it.
Photographs have an immense hold
on the public, caused by the number OF
striking novelties that are Sc easily
produced and their comparative cheap
ness, but they win never entirely efface
the dainty ivory, for it has stood the
test of years.
Just why people are so prone to think
painters in the little mere dabblers in
color is quite beyond me, yet these tiny
bits of sentimentality are chiefly re-
garded as mere playthings, fit only for
a circle Of briIliants or pearls, or per-
haps a band of dull gold-a something
that adds to woman's attractiveness
and that detracts materially from
mans pocketbook.
Any "dabbler" will tell you that it is
useless to -attempts this sort of work
without a thorough knowledge of draw
