Robert Dale Williams is an American classical painter. After graduating from the New York Academy of Art Graduate School of Figurative Art, he furthered his studies with the internationally recognized Norwegian painter Odd Nerdrum.
Williams channels a life-long concern for human rights and victims of oppression in his "World on Fire" series. Bork Nerdrum of World Wide Kitsch writes that Williams paints, "an inescapable barren landscape where tyranny rules and men are fighting for their own survival." With his "Sea and Sky" series, Williams captures an awe and reverence for nature. Efrat Cybulkiewicz of ArtMoire writes that the paintings of Robert Dale Williams are, "A world captured in a still moment where not much is said, but rather felt."
Featured in collections worldwide, Robert Dale Williams has exhibited in Pennsylvania, New York, Germany, Great Britain, and Norway.
