As a young man, Windberg toured the museums of Europe, studying the development of European art through the centuries. The native Texan was most impressed by the work of Renaissance masters. The smooth brush technique developed by Windberg is his own variation of the masters styles. His smooth canvasses, fragile in appearance, each shade and color blending into others, have become his distinctive style. Also skilled with the palette knife, he creates these paintings with vibrant color and texture.

Dalhart Windbergs work depicts a world not as it exists, but as we would all like it to be -forests that hold no threat, shadows that hide no evil. His works embody a strenuous, lifelong devotion to the classical technique and a gentle view of an often harsh and weary world-a subtle combination which creates the unmistakable Windberg style.

Dalhart Windbergs art is not defined by subject matter, style of painting or by any convenient association with a "school of art". The uncommon thread that runs through all of his work is the unmistakable quality of a master painter. His exquisite still lifes exhibit the same depth of insight as his landscapes and both may be rendered with either Windbergs unique smooth surface technique or his dramatic painting knife style.

A lifetime of dedication as an artist has made Windberg one of the most widely known and collected artists in America. Many collectors have discovered the art of Windberg through the reproductions published form his original oil paintings. Collectors now own well over 200,00 prints form his 150+ sold out editions. From four to six new editions are released each year and are carried by on over 400 art galleries and frame shops nationwide.
