some of the facilities would def

to the possibilities that building

more.

Gallery Features
Father-Daughter
Art Exhibition
It is not often that a gallery
can boast as interesting an ex
hibit as that now on view at the
Library Gallery.
Here we have Ijwo sets of
paintings, one by a father and
one by his daughter. Local ad
mirers of Emily Forrest’s work
can now nod a wise head and
think: “Of course. Look what an
artist her father was.”
Heredity plays its part, it
would seem—or can do so if giv
en the chance by the hard work
and perseverance that any crea
tive effort needs, and which this
daughter obviously supplied.
Mrs. Forrest’s work is well
known in this area. Her ethereal
portraits of children, catching the
elusive fairy-like quality of
babyhood, have won her much
acclaim. Outstanding among
these canvases, in this respect is
“Water Baby,” the small paint
ing of the laughing child, against
a backdrop of dashing breakers
on a beach. In the same vein of
infant joy is the “Study of
Child,” showing perhaps the
same little fellow, arms raised
over his head, bare tummy ex
posed to view below his blue bib,
ecstatic grin on his face. Mrs.
Forrest has a wonderful way
with mirth.
And with its opposite emotion.
The grim painting of the three
women, refugees from the hor
rors of the past war^ is a wel
come addition to this show. It
has been hung here previously
and should be again, for it is a
compelling piece of work.
Mrs. Forrest’s father, James
Cook McKell, was a leading illus
trator for years, specializing in
Western stories, depicting the
heros and gunmen, the keen
eyed sheriffs and shifty gamblers
of the old West.
