'Growing Pains' was completed just before Emily lost her mother and father when she was still a child. Her old- est sister ruled with an iron hand and she felt that life was unbear- able with her, When she was al- most sixteen she asked her guard- ian to send her to the art school in the thrilling but wicked city of Ban Francisco, She worked very hard and found criticism hard to take, When re- proved for being too hard on her, the French professor said--"The 1 hag makings, It takes red hot ury to dig 'em up. Make her mad and she can paint." Here, we meet her artist friends and learn of life in a big city. X Finally, Emily became tired of San Francisco and hurried home to take an art class in Victoria. A French artist came to the West. "Western Canada is unpaintable!" he said, "No art school has ever taught art this size." Emily decid ed then to go abrodd to study. Emily was very much disappoint- ed In London. She felt it was 'Stuffy, hard and cruel,' The people sniffed at her because she was 'col- oniall' At the Westminster Art School she missed the friendly comradeship of San Francisco. Life was very lonely. She had no desire for romance. Martyn came all the way from Canada only to be turn- ed down. _ She spent the summer sketching in a little village down in Berkshire which she loved. Then at St. Ives, too, the students were a kindly lot ~about ten in the studio, She painted the woods she loved and felt it was good work.. When her professor called it 'Maudlin! Rub- bish!' she was heartbroken until she found he had said the same to every one else in the class, Then came years of discourage- ment, She became very ill and was sent to a sanitarium to regain her health. Five years and a half were spent in England with only "the struggle to show for it." Deep down, her heart Jang for she was returning to Canada, the Can- ada she loved more than anything on earth, In Vancouver she was asked to accept the post of art tea- cher for the Ladies Art Club. Knowing she was just back from several years of study in London they expected her to be smart and swagger a bit, When they saw an unimportant, rather shy girl they were angry and snubbed her vi- clously, humiliating her in every way possible, She then took a class of children, Each summer she went up north to paint the Indian people and to learn Indian art. Indian art loos- ened the "formal tightness" of the art learned in England's schools and helped her to comprehend Canada's great woods and spaces. She went to France for a year and a half and studied very hard, When returned, Victorians laughed at her pictures because they could not understand the new way of painting. Again she was dis- couraged. She built an apartment house. Immediately, rents went down and she turned to making pottery and raising sheep dogs. Anything to make a living! she did the Canadian Art Movement, She went to Toronto where she met Lawren Harris, He showed her his paintings and gave her great en- couragement. Three days after her return from the East, she was painting again, Her heart troubled her, so she turned to writing, She did not know the rules of writing but made two for herself, the same principles she had used in painting. "Get to the point directly as you can--Nev- er use a big word if a little one will do." First, she wrote the stories of Klee Wyck, reliving the beautiful calm places among the Indians, "This quiet strength healed my heart," she wrote. Eric Brown en- couraged her to write the story of her life, At seventy, her home town began to realize her worth, Klee Wyck won the Governor-Gen- ng medal for best non-fiction in Then came The Book of Small and Thé House of All Sorts, There is nostalgic charm in the realistic sketches of her life as a child, You feel both like laughing and weep- ing when she describes the tenants who came and went in her aparte ment house. The dog lover will ap- preciate her sketches of Loo, Punk, Meg and alt-the others. What a great pérson Emily Carr must have been! These were her final words: brave unquestioning wild goose! No,--being humans we need more trust--walt Whitman's words come ringing -- We but level this lift to pass and continue beyond."
