His father, a country physician, moved his family to New Mexico in 1906, and Mozley grew up in lumber and mining camps and pueblos. He was initially introduced to the materials of oil painting by one of his father's Navajo patients and began to paint at age eleven, after his family settled in Albuquerque. He was one of the founders of the University of Texas Art Department, and brought the constructivist landscape aesthetic of Cezanne to rural Texas and injected a rigor into the regionalism of Texas art. He died in 1989. Listings wanted by Art Brokerage.
