first of all, the three artists who
are to do the portraits are all
experienced, calm workers. Second,
that the gallery experiment viii
be just portrait sketch, not a
difficult finished oil, which re-
quires a series of sittings.
In regard to fine portrait with
detail, mood and the task of cap
turing a personality, artist Strong
gives another reason for liking to
work in a home. Usually, the
person has chosen colors and fur
nishings which suit individuality.
This sets the atmosphere and
makes it easier for the artist to
catalogue the facets of personality.
Even in rented homes, mos people
have objects about them which are
pointers Of what the subject is
really like. / don't try to do just
a surface job, although in sketch
ing, that's all that time permits.
II seems to me that a portrait
should do more than present a
reasonable likeness. For that rea-
son, l try to capture and repro
duce something of a subjects real
self as well as facial proportions,
underlying bone structure, char
acteristic expression and the colors
which are apropos. A portrait, you
see, is actually a picture of a life,
and life isn't something that exists
merely on the surface"
There was the crux of technique
in words. Next step was to see
them put into action. Mrs. Ben
Schulberg, who lives with her
husband at laos Alberta Street,
graciously consented to allow visi-
tors during one of the preliminary
Sittings and to let it be followed
up so that birth of a painting could
be watched. In the audience was
Ben Schulberg, father of famous
novelist Budd Schulberg and Of
Stewart, his younger brother, who
also writes.

tension noted was a slight move

painting,
We looked at her, then at the
woman who looked back at us out
of the canvas. We saw a beautiful
, woman, conscious of beauty, with
a mixture of shyness and pride
We say the expression of com.
passion and understanding OF
others; the hint of tragedy which
is part of all human existence,
but tempered with humor. There
was the predominating aura OF
intelligence and adjustment, of a
full alert existence, of loving life,
of giving love, and of being loved
in return.
We watched this done, but, SPELL
bound at the finish, could still not
fathom or explain completely the
transition, the miracle of paint
pigment into skin texture and pig
ment of human coloring, or Just
how the simple brush in the hands
of man could re-create the
image with such profound insight
into personality.
Mrs. Schulberg's background de-
iineates all the character and ex-
perience recorded in the portrait
by Lew Strong. She was not inter-
viewed until the painting was
complete. Yet the talk after the
finishing touches were applied
brought to light the background
magically caught on canvas.
Not no long ago she was the
'Movie Queen" of the Universal

Western pictures with Johnnie

Most people think of an artist
as a temperamental person dress
ed in smock, maybe sporting a
beret, who has to work in hushed
seclusion except for the model or
scene or grouped objects for still
life. Lewis Strong, member of the
Key West Artists group who specia-
Lies in portraiture, likes to work
in sport togs at the subjects home.
He claims that first of all, it's
a matter of practical, applied pSy-
chology.
Says Strong, "The subject is
usually uneasy at first under the
scrutiny of an artists eyes. This
is always overcome as sittings
progress, no matter what the sur
roundings; but if a model poses

: Home construction in North Nor
way, which came off to a late
start this year because of lasts
winters heavy SHOWS, promises to
set new record before the build
ing season is over.
More than 5000 dwelling units
are scheduled to be ready forec-
cupation by the end of the year,
providing new homes for well over
10000 people in the three northern
provinces. The new construction
construction represents an increase
of 1000 dwelling units as COM
pared with 1851. The increase is
made possible by the issuance of
an unusually high number of
building permits.
A breakdown OF the total shows
that 5000 dwelling units are I'M
der construction in Nordland prov
ince, LOO in war-devastated Finn
mark province, and over 900 in the
province of Trsms. There are plans
to step up home construction in
Nordland province through better
work planning. And Finnmark
province, which still has $4,000
of its population living in barracks,
is going to do all it can to provide
permanent homes for 5000 people
year. The plan is to liquidate
the housing shortage within the
next five years.
