In the early 1960s, art dealer Tita Kaye gave a solo exhibition of paintings by Agnes Martin to poet and publisher George Whitman. In addition to the show, she invited Whitman to visit her Palm Springs home, known as “Indian Canyon,” where–over glasses of wine–she suggested that he consider publishing a book by David McIntosh. Whitman readily agreed, and in 1962 published David McIntosh’s first book of poetry, “Indian Canyon”.
McIntosh was born on November 24, 1927 in Houston, Texas. By the early fifties he was attending Southern Methodist University, spending summers painting alongside Kenneth Noland at Washington Color School.

This time I’ve only made a portrait photo…
