Robert Highsmith
Robert Highsmith received his art training from New Mexico State University and the Ringling School of Art in Sarasota, Florida, graduating with honors in 1971. Since then he has had many one-man and group shows throughout the country. Critics and collectors alike have liked his work too. He is the recipient of over a hundred awards for watercolor and painting, and his watercolors are in numerous corporate and private collections in this country and abroad. The desert landscape and the canyons of the southwest are Highsmiths favorite subjects. His paintings are strong, unsentimental statements with equal parts heart and technical virtuosity. What takes them to brilliance is the stark contrasts that make the paintings photorealistic in detail. “A stunning collection of well-conceived and well-executed watercolors, a fresh and vibrant view of the region.”— M. Stephen Doherty, American Artist.

Currently he is a signature member the American Watercolor Society and the New Mexico Watercolor Society, with memberships in the National Watercolor Society, and the San Diego Watercolor Society. His work is represented by Marigold Arts, Santa Fe, NM, Glenn Cutter Gallery, Las Cruces, NM, Brazos Gallery, Taos, NM, Willow Gallery, Scottsdale, AZ, Filling Station Gallery in Bluffton, SC, and Arts Exclusive in Simsbury, CT.
