since graduated to an electric one.
He apologizes for his spelling, but
says, "I only made it half to Grade
6. People said I’d never get any-
where. I think I’ve made it pretty
well."

Casey Braam prefers to work on

projects that he elects to do. “It”

has to come naturally," explains
Casey, "Under pressure, it's not as
much fun. I remember once I
sketched a house for a family in
Kitimat. I was satisfied myself
when I gave it to them. That
doesn’t happen very much. After
Christmas, they returned it. I had
forgotten to put the house number
on!" |

Of the Terrace Olden Days col-
ouring book, Casey says, “I
enjoyed doing it. It is a nice way
to get things in perspective, both
on paper and in the history of the
area." Casey has enjoyed conduct-
ing occasional art workshops in the
local schools. He has taught the
basics of drawing and perspective
and he laughs, “Often the teacher
learns right along with the kids."

Casey hopes the colouring book
will help get a scanner in the hos-
pital, to help people to find out
about their. illnesses in time so

Casey’s introduction to drawing
occurred when he was a youngster
in the ’30s, in Sassenheim, Hol-
land. (Casey was bom in Sassen-
heim in 1924.) After supper, night
after night, his father drew and
Casey, his brother and six sisters
all drew the same thing, on a small
blackboard. "We turned out all
artistic in. one way or another,"

says Casey proudly, "except my

mother who couldn’t even draw a
straight line.” His father was a
bulb grower, with no art schooling,
but "practise makes perfect", says
Casey. He is quick to add, "Not
that I think my art products are
perfect, but I am still trying."
