Frank Myers
Frank Harmon Myers (1899–1956) was an American landscape and marine painter known for his vibrant use of color and Impressionistic style. Born in Cleves, Ohio, Myers studied at the Art Academy of Cincinnati and later taught there. He is best known for his dynamic and lively depictions of coastal scenes, especially around California, where he spent much of his later life. Myers was greatly influenced by French Impressionism, particularly in his handling of light and color, and he brought these elements to his paintings of American landscapes and seascapes.
Myers’ works are celebrated for their bold brushstrokes and use of saturated colors, often capturing the energy and beauty of natural scenes. He was a member of several art associations, including the Society of Western Artists and the Carmel Art Association. His works are now housed in several American collections, particularly in California, where he is considered an important figure in the regional art scene.
