Inez Russell Bolinger studied under the Indiana Impressionist school of painters.
’At the John Herron Art School at Indianapolis, design, composition and art appreciation were studied under William Forsythe; drawing under Ralph Sowell; Homer G. Davisson, of the Fort Wayne Art School, gave special instruction in landscape and still life work; under Wayman Adams of New York, she studied anatomy and portrait painting. At one time, Leo Ruckle taught her the techniques of pastels.
In an interview in 1956 Mrs. Bolinger stated: ’ It is my good fortune to be associated with such brilliant artists of Indiana, for they hold a prominent place in today’s world of art.’ ‘For its great heritage, the people of Indiana owe much to four artists; T.C. Steele, J. Otis Adams, Otto Stark and William Forsythe. It was my privilege to study under Mr. Forsythe at the John Herron Art School.’ ’
