Maynard Dixon - Desert Canyon Landscape 9" x 12"

Maynard Dixon (American, 1875-1946)
Untitled

Watercolor on paper
9” x 12”

Signed Lower Right

The sweeping scope of the landscape is typical of Dixon’s work, although the tone is softened by the use of watercolor. The painting plays with light and shadow—evident in the dark, obtrusive purples cast by the burgeoning clouds—and color, as seen by the dashes of bright pinks, which complement the more muted tones.
