Desert's Intangibles Are Captured by Fairchild Painter of Desert Landscapes
Tucson artist Hurlstone Fairchild began as a mining engineer in the Southwest after the Missouri School of Mines. A 1920 cephalitis illness redirected him to painting, and since then he has privately studied, sketched on location, and produced large canvases from Grand Canyon subjects. He has been recognized by critics, elected a Royal Society of Arts fellow, and associated with The Fifty American Artists.
