They produce works of simplicity and charm, integrity and forcefulness, with a nice disregard for the opinions of others. The art, illustrated with black and white and color photos include: Yard Art; Murals; Texas Cemeteries; Saddlemaking; Textiles; Quiltmaking; Tatting; Iron; Pine Needle Art; Whittling; Tatoos; Itinerant Indian Artists of West Texas; the Cowboy Hat; and more.
