content: The artwork series includes drawings on loose sheets and sketchbooks—handmade and factory produced—with depictions of Native Americans, Christmas themes, and portraits. Later sketches, mostly in charcoal and pencil, consist of figure and portrait studies, city scenes, and several still lifes. Also found here is a landscape painting Myers gave to Ella Price in 1916, cloth with a linoleum block design that Myers experimented with, paint samples from the artist's studio, and small sketches and doodles drawn on scraps of paper.
