About the Item

This original watercolor by Dwight Baird, titled Heading South, is part of his evocative series on truck drivers. In the early 1990s, Baird joined a truck driver on his travels across the United States, capturing the essence of the American landscape and the life of truckers through his paintings. Heading South depicts a late-night scene of trucks traveling south on I-95, illuminated by the full moon and the last light of the setting sun. The painting portrays a captivating scene with trucks moving along I-95 under the contrasting lights of the full moon and the setting sun. Baird’s use of chiaroscuro, a technique that emphasizes the contrast between light and dark, beautifully captures the transition from day to night. The trucks are silhouetted against the horizon, with the soft glow of twilight merging into the darkness of night, creating a dramatic and atmospheric composition.
