TODAY Mrs. J. N. Gilbert. Arrives Here with Husband and Paughter Usually when Mrs. J. N. Gilbert accompanies her husband to Al- aska, it is a time for painting, scuring material for the scenes she paints so beau- For Louise Gilbert is one of the Northwest's foremost artists, and Alaskan landscapes have al- ways been among her fayorite sub- jects, However, rainy weather has prevented this industrious artist from accomplishing much on her present jowrney, she said regretfully today, and unless weather changes before they leave for Seattle about the middle of August, she will have made few additiol to her collection of Alaska scenes. Mrs. Gilbert’s “one-man” show at the Seattle Art Museum this spring was an important event in art circles in the Northwest. Earlier | in the year she exhibited her etchings at an art show in Port- land. One of her water colors took a prize at the exhibitors of the Na- | tional League of American Pen-" women in Washington, D. C., in| May. In New York City, she has a painting hung in the Grant Gal- leries, where she exhibifed with the Women Painters of Washington. Her forte is landscapes, and ouq‘ and watercolors her means of inter- pretation. Though her work has received national recognition Mrs, Gilbert modestly says she has never been satisfied with anything she | has done, is still studying and strivs | ing to improve her work. Her paint- | ing is modern in feeling, not mod- | crnistic nor realistic. This is Mrs, Gilbert's first trip to Alaska in three years and trav- | eling with Mr, and Mrs. Gilbert | this summer is their daughter, | Paddy, a student at Forest Ridge Convent, Seattle. The Gilberts arrived in Juneau | last night on the Mollusk, of Ket- chikan, and will return to Ketchi- kan in the morning.
