"My understanding of the purpose of this paper is the criticism and evaluation of the candidate's exhibition, as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Arts degree. I interpret this program as it applies not only to the paintings collectively and individually, but as it affects the observer. An evaluation of the paintings as a group will involve a critical discussion of their individual merits and their place in the process of development, as well as a clarification of purpose to help explain their existence. This clarification, to be amplified later, must necessarily touch on the area dealing with values which give life import for me, since art is a way of living and growing, and the paintings are a record of it"--Chapter 1. / "February, 1952." / Typescript. / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts." / Advisor: Edmund D. Lewandowski, Major Professor. / Includes bibliographical references (leaf 39).
