Aubrey Dale Greer is famed for his romanticized paintings of the picturesque Texas and American Western landscapes. Greer studied at St. John's Academy in Salina, Kansas, and later worked as a logger in the Colorado Rockies, which provided him opportunity to explore mountain ranges and other landscapes that became subjects of his paintings. Greer was a member of the Guild of Freelance Artists in New York.
