Canyon Colors: The Botanical Art of Clara Mason Fox

Moulton Museum is proud to present Clara Mason Fox’s first-ever solo exhibition, Canyon Colors: The Botanical Art of Clara Mason Fox. This groundbreaking exhibit features 32 original botanical illustrations, carefully selected from the California Botanic Garden Library’s 150-piece collection. Many of these works are rarely displayed, if ever seen before, making this a truly special opportunity to experience Fox’s artistic legacy. Fox’s delicate yet scientifically detailed botanical watercolors showcase the rich biodiversity of Silverado Canyon, bringing to life the unique flora of Southern California’s canyon landscapes. Her work, spanning from sketches to fully realized watercolor paintings, highlights not just the beauty of native plants but also her passion for botanical documentation and preservation. This exhibition celebrates Fox’s artistic achievements and pioneering spirit as a teacher, historian, and early chronicler of Orange County’s natural and cultural heritage. As a personal friend of Nellie Gail Moulton, Fox shared a midwestern background, a deep love of art, and an independent, adventurous spirit—qualities that defined both her life and work.
