Lon Megargee - Superstition Mountain "The Quest"
Superstition Mountain must be one of the most widely painted peaks in the West. Here is a very small sample. I don't know who the artist is for some, if you do, let me know.
- N. P. Eickmeyer.
Superstition Mountain. (1931) - Barron Postmus.
The Superstitions. -
"These grand sentinels stand to the east of Phoenix, Arizona guarding the secrets of the lost Dutchman Mine and other mysteries and fables that have grown up around this magical area of western folklore. Their very size and rugged shapes seem to create their own mystery..." Barron Postmus
"A native Californian, Barron Postmus "The Cloud Man" spent several years in Hawaii before returning to school at the Los Angeles Art Center. A brief stint in the Army took him to Europe where he served as an illustrator. After the service, he was hired as a technical illustrator by a large aerospace firm. The next few years saw him promoted rapidly to graphic designer, and in 1968 Barron opened his own graphic and illustration agency. Even then he was working for the day when oil painting would be his total profession, and in 1985 this became a reality. The results of this efforts can be seen today at galleries in Scottsdalle, Carmel, and Canon Beach as well as in private corporate collections including Infonet of El Segundo, the Sears Tower in Chicago and in the VIP lounge of the new Aladdin Hotel in Las Vegas.
