Mildred exhibited “Bottles” and “Winter” at Webster Groves’ historic Monday Club, an 1800s library, the first Red Cross chapter west of the Mississippi, and now a studio, performance space, and luncheon club for local women. A published account of her show described it as “poetry, subtlety, and modest restraint” and a “most finely adjusted composition… Her design elements include transparent bottles with interlocking volumes in depth and leafless tree branches tracery, almost as abstract as her spare
arrangements of harvested grain and pyramidal groupings of houses climbing a hill. Her style is strongly her own.”
