Exhibit gives life to portrait
Nancy Tousley, Calgary Herald
Tracing History, a pendant to the Glenbow Museum's Honouring Traditions, showcases four contemporary artists, also in the larger exhibition, who were invited to respond to the museum's collections by making a new work.
Terrance Houle knew when the invitation came that he would be choosing a pastel portrait by Winold Reiss. A likeness of Many Snake Woman, it shows a beautiful girl with an intense gaze. The German-born, New-York based artist made the drawing in the mid-1930s, when the sitter was 17. Read More >

From Costume design and illustration
By Ethel Traphagen
There are some books which may help the ambitious student in the life
class to observe and impress on the mind fundamental facts which it is
believed most life-class teachers will agree in thinking extremely useful.
Among these are Dunlop's Anatomical Diagrams, Figure Drawing by
Hatton, Anatomy in Art by J. S. Hartley, Richter, Marshall or Duval, and
Drawing the Human Figure by J. H. Vanderpoel. If the student is studying without an instructor, Practical Drawing, by Lutz, will be found helpful.
