Julian Onderdonk is perhaps the premier landscape artist of the Texas art tradition. His many vibrant and naturalistic plein-air wildflower paintings are renowned for their treatment of the bluebonnet, a hitherto unexploited subject. He was the son and student of artist Robert Jenkins Onderdonk, also a prominent Texas painter. At the turn of the 20th century, Onderdonk painted in the tradition of the Hudson Valley School in New York, later traveling to Texas for the balance of his career. His paintings are in prominent institutions and collections in the United States.
