The Big Lake
Art Guild
More and more people are
becoming art-conscious as art
guilds are being formed in
| small towns for cultural rec-
reation. The fact that there
are more retired folks than
ever before, and that people
are retiring at earlier ages,
helps to account for the
large number of art enthusi-
asts.
Young people, too, are stu-
dying art with the eye to
making it their life work. But
whether old or young or just
hobbyists in middle life, all
should know the fundamen-
tal artist’s concepts of what
constitutes genuine art. All
need to have an appreciation
of art sufficient to know the
basic laws of perspective, of
composition, and of color
harmony.
Many people say, “I don’t
know anything about art, but
I know what I like.’’ The Big
Lake Art Guild has for its
objective the instruction In
the fundamentals of drawing
and painting as preliminary
to each individual’s pursuit
of his preference In the field
of art generally. It does not
matter whether he chooses to
work in portraits, landscapes,
or sea-scapes; whether in oils,
tempera, transparent water-
colors, conti-crayon, pencil or
charcoal; whether he seeks
satisfaction and a sense of
achievement as a hobbyist or
| a commercial artist, these
j fundamental considerations
listed above, need to be ex-
plored carefully if one would
experience the absorbing joy
of this cultural recreation. An
art student may not achieve
much recognition in the art
world but still he will experi-
ence the thrill of “creating
something” as he uses his la-

TRUCKS FOR'65!
More models, more engines,
more Chevy workpower I
The long strong line of Chevy trucks
for ’65 is rolling in with miles of new
working equipment. Like that hand-
some Fleetside pickup that leads the
pack ... one of the 18 pickup models
in the line this year.
Further along, you’ll find economical
Chevy-Vans, a wide selection of walk-
in vans, a bigger choice of big trucks,
more job-tailored components—trucks
built to fit your business and budget.
And under those hoods you’ll find
the best in 4- and 6-cylinder, V8 and
diesel power, 18 tough truck engines
in all including 4 new lower cost
diesels. Here's the huskiest bunch
of haulers that ever came looking
for work!
Our word for all this is workpower.
That's the stuff that makes a truck a
real truck. A hard-nosed money-saver.
Yes, workpower's here and Chevy’s
got it, in such a variety of types and
sizes that picking the best truck for
your job will be easier than it’s ever
been before. If you're in the market,
just get in touch with your dealer.
Telephone your Chevrolet dealer about any type of truck
