GROUP DESCRIPTION
of the
STUDIO OF HARMONIOUS ENDEAVOUR

The Studio of Harmonious Endeavour, originally founded by Nenagh Molson, is a group of Goward House artists experienced in Chinese brush painting. Some of the members of the group have a professional arts background and others have taken lessons from masters in brush painting over the course of several years. The group meets on Wednesdays at Goward House to paint together in an atmosphere of mutual encouragement and critique. We use traditional oriental materials such a mulberry paper, ink, and water colours, and our work tends to focus on traditional subjects for oriental art such as landscape. flowers, birds and animals but often with a West Coast influence.

While Nenagh was teaching at Goward House, it became a tradition for her to organize an exhibit of the work of her students at the House during the month of December. After her recent retirement the group decided to continue this tradition on its own with this December show.

Current members of the group are: Audrey Campsall, Arlene Davey, Barbara Downie, Evelyn Downs, Ann Gibbard, Jean McClure, Dorothy Roberts and Bonnie Walmsley. Artists interested in joining the group are invited to contact Ann Gibbard at (250)-477-2986.
