  • Notes:
    Heinie Hartwig is a versatile artist best known for his Western-themed paintings, though his portfolio also includes a wide range of landscapes and still lifes.

    He began painting in 1970, initially dedicating his evenings to his craft while working a day job. A year later, he left his job to pursue art full-time. Raised in California's Santa Clara Valley, Hartwig spent three years in Europe with the Army, witnessing historic moments like the construction of the Berlin Wall. During this time, he convinced his wife, Eva, to leave East Germany, and the two returned to Santa Clara. By 1991, Hartwig earned a spot in "Who's Who in American Art."

    Hartwig honed his artistic skills by studying the techniques of the "Old Masters," drawn to the timeless charm and romance of classical art. While the Western theme dominates much of his work, his versatility shines through in his meticulously detailed serene natural scenes and carefully composed still-life compositions.
