Joseph Yoakum

Lake of the Ozarks
1970

This is a colored pencil drawing depicting a stylized landscape with text at the top that reads "Lake of the Ozarks near Niangua River and town of Mack Creek Missouri by Joseph Yoakum Nov 10 1970." The landscape features exaggerated, rolling hills in shades of brown and green, with a large, shell-like structure on the right side. In the foreground, there is a body of water with a small island and trees, and the background shows a blue sky. The drawing has a dreamlike, surreal quality to it.
