| tnat TINS disposition, like the sunny
skies and bright landscape and spark
ling sea, should be reflected in the work
of the artists of Hawaii, is only to
be expected. That it indeed is, one
needs only to go TO the Kilohana Ar
League art exhibit to learn.
| Almost all of the artists of Honolulu
are represented by examples of their
| work, and most of them are very cred
liable. OF course, some pictures are
| better than others-much better. The
work of some artists, even local ar.
| lists, is better than that of Others, and
some work of some artists is better
than some other work. All of these
fruisms are exemplified in the Kilohana
| exhibit.
Howard Hitchcock is the principal
| exhibitor. He has a number of can.
vases on the walls that are very salts
flying. One, scene at Pearl Harbor.

canvas, labeled "In the Waianae
Mountains" that is both daring and
striking. 1t is view, from an eleva-

ing, as usual, is one of the best features
of his work. His coloring is getting
softer. There is less of the hamboyant
than there used to be, though his color
ing is still, as a general thing, bright.
Mrs. l.. Marshall exhibits FIVE paint
ings-fsh, flowers, still life-that at
tracted attention, Mrs. Pierre Jones is
a liberal exhibitor whose work, chiefly
landscapes, is striking, and was general
~ approved by those who visited the
exhibition last night.
Miss G. Robertson exhibits "Nuuanu
Stream "a new view from new view
point of an old subject.
| Mrs A. h. Gurrey, Jr., shows her
Types of Hawaiian YOUTH which,
| although they have been seen here be-
| fore, still continue to cause surprise
that with the camera she has been able
to obtain such soft effects. The posing
and general arrangement of the sub,
jects is no small part of the excellence
of her work, though much of this is
necessarily lost upon those who are not
familiar with the difficulties of obtain
ing desired results with the camera
lens.
A. H. Parke exhibits three landscapes,
which are typically Hawaiian and |
which must attract the instant atten-
ton of all who visit the exhibit.
Mrs. s. d. Heapy has two excellent
pictures on the walls, "Tbe Roman
Forum and "Waianae. Miss Alice
