Oscar,
Interesting you should mention Eleanor. She was been mentoring a friend of
mine in Ottawa for some time. I'm very curious where she was speaking??
There may be a job posting (it was supposed to be last spring already) to
work on a bunch of carvings for Parliament Hill that she has drawn up and
nobody has had a chance to carve yet. One of the brothers (Maurice I believe
but can't recall their last name) that worked under her are soon to retire.
A gal that I went to school with has unofficially applied for the job.
Thanks,
Karen

Quoted text begins.I attended a talk by Canada's "Dominion sculptor" on Wednesday.
one statement at the beginning made the whole 2 hours worthwhile for
me.
Eleanor Milne (the sculptor) said her mother asked her when she was
seven years old why she was drawing all the time. she replied,
"first I think, then I draw my thinking."
what a wonderful child's clarity on the artistic process!
End of quote.
