Without Frames ART, in the true sense, stands for those things which are the creations of man and not nature. A work of art, then, is the product of man’s intellect and imagination as well as the work of his hands; in the words of John Ruskin, Art is the work of the whole spirit of man.” In this publication, it is our desire to empha- size not only the fine results which come from the art classes, but we also wish to show what every activity in our school is doing in the ART OF LIVING. If you love life and believe in the moving beauty of its essence; if you can carry in your heart a dream as the most valuable of all your possessions; if you would school yourself to seek in all your experience for truth, goodness, and beauty; then you can stand and say, I, TOO, AM AN ARTIST.” It is the unexpressed wish of everyone to make of his life a thing of beauty,” and a joy forever.” Will you make a MASTERPIECE or weave a waste of shreds and patches? . Every man is the creator of his own character, and the tools with which he equips himself are of his own choosing. Where are your tools and what is your material? Where else than in THOUGHT, ACTION, and SPEECH need you look for a medium? John Erskine, in defining art, said, I should like to use the word to cover all the IDEAL-MAKING and IDEAL-EXPRESSING functions of our nature.” Ideal-making is the first step of an artist. He sees a vision; he dreams a dream. Your ideals are your life portrait seen in advance. You build a dream; your dream builds you. Let us bring to the canvas all the ideal-making and ideal- expressing functions of our nature, to the very end believing as we paint that ours is a picture worthy to be called THE LIFE BEAUTIFUL.” 2
