“Growing up in North Dakota, and the time spent at my Grandparents farm north of Golden Valley, ND,  gave me a unique appreciation for rural life, wildlife and the beauty of the mid-west landscape. I fell in love with art and drawing at an early age, and after picking up a paint brush, new instantly oil painting would become a life long ambition. I am a self taught artist. I drew a lot of inspiration from the artists who’s artwork I loved and aspired to achieve in my artwork as well. I wanted to do paintings like Terry Redlin, Jim Hansel, and fellow North Dakota artist Gary Miller.” – Jim Olheiser

Welcome to the on-line gallery of North Dakota artist Jim Olheiser.

Here you will find his entire collection of original paintings where every painting has a story to tell. With most of his paintings set with a backdrop of the rugged Badlands of the upper midwest, Jim’s unique style tries to capture the beauty of rural America. This style and perspective are also captured in all of his Hunting Dog Portraits and commissioned work as well!

 We encourage you to browse through all of his original work and check out the many choices of print options available, such as framed and un-framed open-edition gliclee’ prints, and museum quality canvas prints.
