James Weikert |
James Weikert is an oil painter and architectural designer living and working in Bozeman, Montana. His childhood was spent in a small town in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. This rural environment allowed him the opportunity to spend countless hours exploring the surrounding forests, rivers, and mountains.
James first developed an interest in oil painting while attending Norwich University in Vermont. Drawing on techniques learned from studying architecture, he created a unique painting style that blended elements of illustration, painting, and technical drafting.

After living near the New Hampshire seacoast, James moved to Montana in 2003. His work was immediately influenced by the dramatic landscapes of the northern Rocky Mountains. This new inspiration compelled James to focus on progressing his technique and his understanding of the western landscape that he now calls home. |
