EXHIBITION OF PASTELS
INTERESTING AND VIVID WORK
An exhibition of unusual interest opened yesterday at Gloucester Building (8th floor).
Miss Blanche Mary Granbs who is showing some twenty pastels is only seventeen years of age and is, I believe, almost self taught, but her work is astonishing, strong and individual
The pictures she is showing are all pastel heads of Chinese or Fili- pino,types, made during the last two months at Fanling and Bagiuo Her style is vigorous and she is not afraid of colour, but more valuable is her grasp of form and the solidity of her drawing
I feel sorry that Mr. Wontscher, who gave, it will be remembered, most interesting exhibition here a short while ago, was not still in Hong Kong to have met Miss Grambs, for there is a good deal in commen in their work-and the best thing in the work of both artiste is their Fealisation of the importance of bones
Miss Grambs uses colour fearless Hyrand her work has a vivid strength which is particularly at tractive. We shall hear more about this young artist, and I hope that Hong Kong will have the pleasure Bul privilege of seeing more of her pictures in a year or two's time. E.M.B.
