Inspired by a location just five miles from Downtown Scottsdale, Desert Rocks No. 2 / Camelback Mountain captures the famous Phoenix landmark as it was before homes were built to its base. A.P. Hays notes about this painting: “Dixon never painted ‘postcard views,’ as this slice of Camelback Mountain demonstrates.”
