Doel Reed (1895-1985) Rest 1941 The beautifully textured etching with aquatint, published in an edition of 250 prints, is signed by the artist in pencil lower right. After studying and working in architecture, and prior to serving in World War One, Dole Reed studied at the Cincinnati Art Academy. He returned there to study and teach after the war. Henry Meakin, his instructor there, is primarily credited with introducing Reed to printmaking. After his time in Ohio, Dole Reed took a position as head of the Oklahoma State University art department in 1924. A position he would hold until his retirement in 1959. Following retirement he moved to Taos, New Mexico where he lived until his death in 1985. Over the course of his career, Reed participated in more than 300 juried art exhibitions and was elected to the National Academy of Design for his achievements as a printmaker, specifically the medium of aquatint etching, for which he is considered a master. To this day, OSU's Dole Reed Center in Taos honors his legacy with cultural and educational programs, workshops and residencies that serve the arts community both locally and nationally.
