a ( l itli apoUxjien to another “ii ' ” — ) If you can mould a head when all about you Are moulding theirs and aiming clay at you. If you can make designs when others doubt you, And call a man a man abstractly too; If you can tell of Dante, Plato, Homer, And give the marks for words like “penalize”. And still not wish to |)ass into a coma. While looking blank or showing much surprise; If you can paint and not make oils your master. If you can keep a j)late its proper shape. If you can face your canvas and disaster. And take your knife and scrape, and scrape, and scrape; If you can find the points in your perspective. And know just why and where a shadow falls; Or fill in cuttings simple and effective, Though your dynamic symmetry a])palls; If you can keep art history books with care. And be on time to [)lace them in the box. And copy some old Neolithic bear. And then take notes on Monday morning talks; If you can force your mind and eye and hand To charcoal from a cast of Aphrodite, And watch her wondrous beauty turn to sand. Vet not l)lame Art and call her jade or flighty: If you can see your work a joy to you. And win some praise — nor lose the common touch. If neither relatives nor family sj)oil you, — If you can please instructors — though not so much; If you can fill each (juick, relentless minute. And to a steady progress well attend. Yours is the S[)here and every nuance in it. And which is more — you’ll be an Artist, friend. Beatrice Cohen, ’36
