By permission of the artist, The Cyber Art Show is pleased to feature a 12-piece Exhibition of works by American landscape artist David Harms (born 1960 in Wichita, Kansas).

After graduating from Rocky Mountain High School in Fort Collins, Colorado, David went on to attend Colorado State University. Since he’d been a long-time professional musician and actor, it only seemed natural to try his hand at painting, too. So in 1996 he started oil painting, exploring and selling work covering an assortment of subject matter. But when he did his first plein-air landscape in 1999, he was hooked!

David credits his development as a painter to the valuable time he’s spent with Michael Lynch and also as a volunteer at several workshops given by the Plein Air Painters of America. John David Phillips and George Strickland also get extra-special consideration!

In 2001, David’s work was accepted into the Top 100 of the prestigious Arts for the Parks competition in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. He was featured in the February 2004 Southwest Art Magazine’s “Artists to Watch” column and also in their February 2009 and February 2013 Landscape issues.

In 2006, David was made an artist member of The Rocky Mountain Plein Air Painters and has received multiple plein-air painting, gallery and salon show awards. The artist’s paintings can be seen in fine-art galleries in New Mexico, Montana and Colorado.
