VVATER-COLOUR DRAWING
BY ETHEL KIRKPATRICK
his work avoids eccentricity. A high conception
of the dignified Claims of the dass of work here
reproduced has dictated his manner of working in
his material. The result is the broad and sympa-
thetic treatment so much in evidence in his art
and so necessary where work of this kind is to rise
to high significance.
We reproduce a water-colour painting by Miss
Ethel Kirkpatrick which was exhibited amongst
her paintings in an exhi-
bition of her work held a
little while since. It stood
out amongst other work of
a good Standard as a diffi-
cult subject treated with a
confidence and skill that
was notable.
The drawings in pen
and ink which we repro-
duce by Mr. F. L. B. Griggs
are about as excellent ex-
amples as could beobtained
of the heights to which the
treatment of landscape in
pen and ink have been
taken to-day. Probably the pen is as difficult as
any medium known to an artist. It is very diffi-
cult to see nature in a way that finds easy trans-
lation through the medium of pen and ink.
Greys are only to be got by a Separation of the
lines, and the blacks have to be kept transparent
by a method of Crossing lines which must not be
dull or mechanical. In the drawing of the Lily
Fond at Biddenham Mr. Griggs gives us a very
excellent example of the sympathetic and scholarly
sion. Bauer as an etcher
certainly is worthy to be
spoken of together with
that great master, and it is
very interesting to contrast
the modern’s method, and
its virile yet dreamy free-
dom, with the restraint ot
the older master’s imagina-
tive realism.
From modern etchers
Mr. M. A. J. Bauer Stands
apart. His methods and
technique are unlike those
of other Contemporary
masters of the art. His
work is characterised by
imaginative feeling of
a vety high, and of a
romantic, Order, and this is
wonderfully interpreted in
his swift and daring tech-
nique. In the ordered
treatment of architecture
the sombre imagination
of Meryon found itsexpres-
