The Artist's Tools themselves are not sufticient. There are many who love to draw and paint·.; . The enjoymmt of the beauties. of nature is a sufficient impetus to take them into the open, to the fields and streams, to the sea-coast or to tbe mountain-side, there to try to transfix the. scene that enthralls them. Tools, however, are not su.flicient. Thorough training is necessary. The world of art today is asking more insistently than ever "are you a creator or an imitatorl" The methods of teaching in the Evanston Academy of Fine Arts are shaped to this one end that the student develops his creative ability while teaming the DR of the tools. A little investigation will prove this to you. Your visit is cordially invited. There are classes in Dress Design under Mr. Eddy, Interior Decoration under Mrs. Danielson, pure and applied ·design under Mr. Marringer, perspective and lettering under Mr. Higgie, figure drawing, color and composition under Mr. Scheffler.
