DON‘T DIG IT UP! 598 North Western Avenue Lake Forest, Hlinois ALL WORK GUARANTEED Tom Wilder, Noted Artist Exhibits Work at Woman‘s Club Zechlinâ€"Bedtime fun. for : boys and . girls. . Hanging on the walls of the Highland Park Woman‘s jglub throughout the month of March are the gay and vivid oil paintings of Tom Wilder of Ravinia, an artist whose reputation has been rapidly growing in this part of the country the past few years. & Back of the work which repreâ€" sents Nature in its every mood, is the interesting history of the man who understands and interprets its manyâ€"sided beauty. Brought up in a small western town, at the time that crayon portraits were at their height, Tom Wilder, with his facile brush, depicted his relatives and friends in this popular manner to the extent that in almost every home reposdd one of his lifeâ€"size portraits. on)decorative easels. Later in Chicago, studying archiâ€" tecture at Armour Tech, and art at the Art Institute, one of the forâ€" mer American depressions. forced him to chovse as a livelihood comâ€" mercial art.‘ This wellâ€"paying medâ€" ium allowed him to marry, to build an artistic home in Ravinia, and to educate a daughter, who is rapidly gaining fame as a poetess and wriâ€" ter. The bankruptcy of his emâ€" ployer, however, and the urge for painting which always underlay all his artistic efforts, paved the way for his painting career. Each year, the buying public exâ€" pressed its approval of his colorful work in larger and larger sales unâ€" til the recent â€" depression deprived his buyers of their purchasing powâ€" Mr. Wilder is strongly of the opinion that American art can nevâ€" er really flourish until . American critics, Museum Directors and art writers encourage serious Ameriâ€" can artists. ~He feels that landâ€" scapes make most satisfactory home pictures, because they expressâ€"Naâ€" ture‘s infinite variety of moods, colâ€" or and form. Museums seldom acâ€" cept landscapes although Mr. Wilâ€" der has had one accepted at the Art Institute each year. At one time, also, he was noted as a minâ€" iature painter, and received favorâ€" able comments in the newspapers on his work as a portraitist. It is a privilege for the members of the Woman‘s Club to be able to enjoy the fine work of this deservedly popular artist during the month of March. . er. So Tom Wilder conceived the idea of painting small intimate picâ€" tures that â€"anyone â€"couldâ€"afford â€"to buy and hang in his home, with the result that few are the homes in Ravinia and along the North Shore that do not include at least one Wilder landscape or floral picture.
