The angular forms and blocks of color in Ward Lockwood’s Flying Fish reveal an artist at ease with modernism in the American West. The Kansas-born painter was introduced to the concept at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts starting in 1914, and then later in France, where he traveled with Kenneth Adams. In 1926, Lockwood moved to Taos, New Mexico, where he explored the medium of watercolor. He was heavily influenced by the paintings of John Marin and Andrew Dasburg, which is evident in this work.
