The fine art of David W. Mayer captures the beauty and color of Colorado and West, from the high plains to the Rocky Mountains and from the Pacific Coast to the desert Southwest. David's paintings let you experience first-hand the warm light of a prairie morning, the soft, cool colors of blue-shadowed snow, and the brilliant gold of a high country late Autumn day.
David W. Mayer is a member of the Oil Painters of America (OPA), as well as the American Impressionist Society (AIS), the Rocky Mountain Plein Air Painters (RMPAP), and the Colorado Plein Air Painters (CPAP) and is an avid “plein air” painter with an emphasis on portraying the beauty of Colorado and the Rocky Mountain West as well as the Southwest, California and the West Coast.
David Mayer has studied with Scott Christensen, T. Allen Lawson, Kevin MacPherson, Ted Goerschner, and David Leffel as well as through the writings and works of Richard Schmid, Edgar Payne, Joaquin Sorolla and the California Impressionists. While he was an award winning watercolorist who studied with Tony Couch, David has concentrated exclusively on Oil painting for the past ten years. David was also an Art Director and Creative Director in print, web, interactive media and marketing communications prior to painting full time as a professional landscape artist.
