Catlin Gabel School - Garrulous Pine Yearbook (Portland, OR)

Page 3 text:

Deolzkczvion Mrs. Griffin's classes in the beloved, but somewhat crowded, art shack are pleasant, informal and noisily active. Students are given complete independence, a wide choice of materials and constructive help. They usually leave at the end of the year with bulky portfolios, clay pottery and sculpture, woven materials or block printed textile designs and some sense of accomplishment. Frequently Mrs. Griffin arranges a still life or engages a model for sketching and encourages students to go outside and draw what they see. When a piece of work is finished, and the student proudly shows it to Mrs. Griffin, she clasps her hands and beams with delight. Indeed, this expression must be familiar to everyone in the school. Decorative art used on the cover and section dividers of this yearbook are reproductions of original block prints created by Mrs. Griffin during her hobby time. It is with sincere appreciation that we of the yearbook staff dedicate the 1958 Gcwrulous Pine to you, Mrs. Griffin, and wish you the best of luck in the new Art Studio at Honey Hollow.
