THE ARTIST IN EACH OF US

Illustrated with 22 color and 166 black and white paintings and sketches by her pupils, this ""case history"" study of Mrs. Cane's teaching methods and experience will give the art teacher and those interested in creative art something to mull over. Believing that creative art is a satisfying and stimulating means toward achieving an integrated personality, Mrs. Cane discusses how her methods have been applied throughout the years, not only to aid the student in achieving a more dynamic form, color and line sense, acuteness of observation, but a release of tension which leads to emotional difficulties. The case histories and explanation of the ""scribble"" method are illuminating, but her students' work, reproduced here, is indeed exciting and makes its point. Or special interest to artists, teachers, and psychologists.
