Studio: international art (21.1901)

Studio- Talk

Now, in this year's exhibition at the Central School
held early in J uly, the results of the training received
in two or three classes, as in those for modelling,
seemed less satisfactory than they had been on
former occasions. On the other hand, the archi-
tectural studies were very creditable, and there was
no falling off in the simple, effective bookbindings
■of Mr. Douglas Cockerell's class, or in the stained
glass executed by the pupils of Messrs. Christopher
Whall and A. J. Drury. Two bold and clever
woodcuts in colour were exhibited by Mr. C. T.
Dodd; some enamelled jewellery drew attention
to the promising ability of Mr. W. S. Hadaway;
and considerable talent was displayed by Mr.
Johnston's pupils in the new class for script-hand
.and illumination. Amongst the most important
exhibits which call for attention were an illumin-
ated page by Miss Kingsford, a bookbinding
by Mr. George Fisher, an enamelled bowl by
Mr. R. D. Winter, a woodcut by Mr. C. T. Dodd,

BELL-PUSH BY ONSLOW WHITING

and three pieces of work by Mr. Onslow
Whiting, i.e., two bell-pushes and a large
door-knocker, the motif of which was
-r<l<'^3i?yVtCJvj*^*v$s5f* taken from the fable of Prometheus.

By the time these notes appear in

LASGOW.—I have had the
pleasure of seeing some
recent work by Mr. Talwin

Bowling. Delightfully situated in a

secluded corner of the Auchentorlie
in OCOrO' estate on the acclivities of the Kilpatrick

SO pietje CL rOJMLSSfv Hills, the house enjoys an extensive view

trig SU/etneSSe, of the Clyde, looking down on the

hat god that: maker IS of- « nearer interest of Bowling with its pic-

never hercie better; as I ItSs

turesque berthing pool, and across the
water-way to the finely wooded policies
of Blantyre. Mr. Morris is to be con-
gratulated on the possession of a house,
pleasant and home-like in its interior,
^W^*' ' where he is gradually surrounding him-

self with the expression of his own indi-
viduality, and the outcome of his sense
of artistic fitness.
