6—The Daily Collegian Wednesday, Aug. 5, 1981 HUB mural: Jim Collins has been working on the large sports mural in the HUB dining area for most of the weekends of the summer, and it will probably take the rest of the term for him to complete his work.

Collins is painting the sports mural in the new dining areas under construction on the HUB ground floor. He chose to set his work as a scene in Beaver Stadium, but football is only one of many sports he has incorporated into his mural. He was chosen to paint the mural from a field of about 20 who competed in a contest held by the Office of Housing and Food Service Operations in March, he said. The winner was announced the first week of June, and Collins expects he will be weekend-painting for the rest of the summer. Although the contest limited him to a given theme sports at the University Collins does not feel as if this con strained his creativity. "I chose the content. I said to myself, `what do these people want?' I targeted my audience. Of course, it was a sports theme. But I chose what to put in it and where everything went," he says, peer ing critically at a freshly painted patch of crowd. And, although this is his largest work thus far, Collins has had experience with murals before. Among the half dozen or so he has painted, was onp•for a mental hospital. "I painted a jungle for them and it was fun. But it made me count my blessings and realize how fortunate I am." When he isn't at work on his mural, Collins freelances or is employed at Spruce Cottage, where many University publications are designed. He does pho tography, paste-up and some design, but he prefers not to have his talents pid geonholed. "I consider myself an artist who works in a variety of mediums," he says. "Pho tography, painting, design . . . it's all visual." But Collins can take his art quite se riously. He holds a bachelor's in art history from the University of Mas§achu setts, although his early study was more inclined toward studio courses. "I got into art history because it gave me a more balanced picture, a more objective view of the art world than (did) through the artist's eye the conceits of my studio instructors Well, studying art history was the best thing hi the world for my education as an artist," he says. And having acquired an appreciation for the evolution of art, Collins has also acquired some opinions about its state today. "The Art World is just a small group of people that constantly bid up the price of artworks," he says. "Then there's the stuff in the middle, like painting murals at Penn State. This is akin to American painting." • But Collins is sure about painting those murals. "It's more than money. It's fun. It's what I do," he says. And he finds State College is a conge nial place to do it. "I like it here. Mainly because you don't need a car. I hate being dependent on a car. When I don't have a car, it frees my soul." Collins will sign the mural "Seamus," a signature he uses on his non-photographic artworks. The work takes up an entire wall of the HUB dining area, measures about 20 feet by 7 feet, and,is composed around a central ellipse formed by the Lion, the leaping gymnast, and the lunging fencer. • Collegian Automotive i N E W AT IIIirI aTHY HELPING OF NAPS•Z OR HEL DIESEL POWER.
