2000.250.FA Otis Dozier, Big Bend Country


GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
This lively watercolor was probably a product of one of the artist's many sketching trips to Big Bend National Park. Dozier—one of the "Dallas Nine"—spent much of his life exploring the Texas landscape. In this painting, he has captured the vastness of the Texas landscape in a simple, freely painted sketch.
