Neil Welliver

Neil Welliver was a renowned landscape artist known for striking, often large-scale paintings of Maine’s woodlands. Rather than painting in a naturalistic style, Welliver adopted the rhythmic brushwork, structural clarity, and compressed space of modernism. He also eschewed conventional or romantic landscape motifs, preferring to paint texturally rich subjects such as stumps, snarled clumps of fallen brush, and beaver lodges, deeming these locations “places of power.”
