“Arizona’s picturesque setting provide in my mind the greatest possible opportunity for pictorial beauty…the people themselves are naturally artistic…” - Gerald C. Delano

Gerald Curtis Delano studied with Harvey Dunn and N. C. Wyeth and became a successful illustrator before he moved to Colorado to work on a ranch and later homesteaded. His painting “Navajo” sold for $1,247,000 in 2008.
