French student and artist John Ball showed slides and spoke on French impressionism at the Nov. 18 French Club meeting.
He explained the chief aim in impressionism as being to reproduce only the immediate and over-all impression made by the subject on the artist, without much attention to detail. The French were the first to work with this idea which also involves color and light.
John, who is from Nashville, Ark., is attending TC to complete 30 academic hours necessary for graduation from Ringling School of Art at Sarasota, Fla., where he has attended for three years.
During a short business meeting, a Christmas breakfast was planned for Dec. 17 at 7:15 o’clock in the Student Center. Sarah Carson was elected reporter to replace Bonnie Cate.
