This Month's Cover: Frances Hook, nationally known magazine and advertising artist, describes her "Girl in a Breeze" painting for Coronet's May cover as "one of my most fortunate efforts." The girl is really a composite of two charming teen-aged models, but the rocky coastline is a purely imaginary setting. It might be any coastline-yours perhaps, if you live in a seacoast city or town-and the pensive girl could be any girl who has watched a ship sail out to sea with a loved one aboard. A Philadelphian by birth, Mrs. Hook studied at the Pennsylvania Museum School of Industrial Art, where she took many prizes. With her artist-husband, Richard Hook, she is now adding a new studio wing to their home in Chestnut Hill, a Philadelphia suburb.
