Born in Shoals, Indiana, Pearl Burns became a painter of Southwest
landscapes, genre, and figures and for many years did illustrations,
which appeared in "Liberty" magazine.
She was raised in Dalhart,
Texas where her stepfather, David Robison, was mayor. He encouraged her
to pursue her art talent and to attend the Museum of Fine Arts in
Boston, which she did from 1912 to 1915. There she studied with Edmund
Tarbell and Frank Benson. She later took summer art schools at Harvard
Unive (showing 500 of 1553 characters). |
