JOE DE YONG "WASH GIBBS" WATERCOLOR ON PAPER

Joe De Yong (1894-1975) "Wash Gibbs" Watercolor on Paper. Born in Webster Grove, MO on March 12, 1894, Joe DeYong was raised in Indian territory and, as a teenager, learned fancy roping from Will Rogers, earned his living as a cowboy, and worked with Tom Mix in making westerns. Due to spinal meningitis, he was deaf from an early age and became an expert at Indian sign language. Primarily a self-taught painter, his greatest influence came during the period 1916-26 when he worked in the studio of Charles M. Russell in Montana. After Russell's death, DeYong became nationally known for his Indian and western subjects. He later moved to California and worked as a technical advisor in the movie industry with homes in Pasadena and Santa Barbara.
