Archive Label 1999: Vegetation is often used to symbolize a geographic region, as corn, wheat, or sunflowers symbolize Kansas. Yucca also is a native plant, common in the southwestern part of the state. Hatton made another print of yucca, now owned by her nephew, who believes these scenes may be from their family farm near Salina. Hatton received both her undergraduate and masters degrees from the University of Kansas. She taught in the design department from 1926-35, before moving to Fort Collins, Colorado, where she taught art at Colorado State University from 1936-1972.
