Description: Although Impressionism caught on slowly in the United States, by the 1920s, when William McDermitt taught at Washington State College in Pullman the revolution was complete.

After teaching in Pullman, he moved to Los Angeles in the early 1930s where he often took his pupils on painting excursions into the nearby deserts.
