Doris More Lusk (5 May 1916 – 14 April 1990) was a New Zealand artist and art teacher, potter, university lecturer. She was born in Dunedin, Otago, New Zealand on 5 May 1916. ==Early life== Lusk was the daughter of Alice Mary (née Coats), and Thomas Younger Lusk, a draughtsman and architect. She had two older siblings, Marion and Paxton. The family moved to Hamilton where she went to primary school. A woman who had an art studio near to the Lusks, encouraged her to paint. In 1928 the family returned to Dunedin when her father joined the architectural firm, Mandeno and Frazer. Lusk had one more year at Arthur Street primary school before attending Otago Girl's High School in 1930. In 1933 she left high school, before she matriculated, and enrolled in the King Edward Technical College, the formal name for the Dunedin School of Art.〔 Lusk enrolled against her father's wishes and later noted there had been 'one hell of a row' about her decision. Lusk attended the art school from 1934 to 1939. The school was a member of the La Trobe programme which involved the importation of practising artists from England to staff New Zealand schools. These artists included W. H. Allen and R. N Field who arrived in 1925 and had a major impact on the Dunedin art scene. Lusk was taught by Charlton Edgar and took life classes under Russell Clark in his studio. Through a fellow student, Anne Hamblett, she met Colin McCahon and Toss Woollaston.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Doris Lusk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
