DeForrest H. Judd, a native of Hartsgrove, Ohio, lived most of his life in Dallas working as an artist and teaching at Southern Methodist University. Judd’s keen observation of everyday life and nature influenced him to paint, draw, and print his interpretations onto canvas, paper, and copper enamels. As a professional artist and teacher, Judd taught numerous students at SMU and at summer workshops in Arkansas, New Mexico, and Texas. The collection includes artwork, clippings, correspondence, documents, photographs, published works, and publicity relating to his art and teaching career. The sketchbooks concentrate on Judd’s trips to Colorado, the Gulf Coast, Caddo Lake, New Mexico, the Big Bend and the Hill Country in Texas.
