Michael Schofield (born 1947) is an American landscape painter and printmaker known for his highly detailed, luminous depictions of nature. Born in Orlando, Florida, he moved with his family to Oakland, California, where he began studying watercolor in high school under the guidance of an art teacher who recognized his talent. After military service, Schofield studied art in Nashville, Tennessee, and during his college years worked with noted watercolorist John Pike in Woodstock, New York. He later operated his own studio for twelve years, teaching and painting, and expanded his practice from watercolor into oils, acrylics, and printmaking. His traditional landscapes emphasize rich color, precise detail, and an atmospheric sense of place, often seeking to evoke memories and emotions in the viewer. His work has entered private and corporate collections, including those of the Library of Congress, Bank of America, Xerox, and Occidental Petroleum
