Throughout the 1920’s, Logan painted and exhibited with a group known as “the Society of Six.' Devoted to the colorist principles of the French Fauvists, the Six banded together to share costs, rents, ideas and exhibitions spaces. Logan’s works grew more subdued as he aged and by the end of the 1930’s he had abandoned his colorful palette entirely.
