Nice find..Ralph Brownell Mcgrew
"R. Brownell McGrew was an American painter known for his depictions of Southwestern landscapes and Native Americans. Born on September 6, 1916 in Columbus, OH, he attended the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles before painting commercially for companies, including Firestone and M.G.M. Studios. After becoming enamored with the deserts around Los Angeles, McGrew began to make painting trips through the Southwest. These journeys led him to meet and subsequently depict many of the Native American tribes of the region. The artist once said that his end goal in painting was “to paint as well as he could, in order to communicate the infinite thrill and rapture of God’s creation.” McGrew died on June 17, 1994 in Tuscon, AZ."
