Stephen Dinsmore (born 1952) is an American painter known for his expressive, color-driven landscapes and still lifes. Based in Nebraska, Dinsmore’s work blends realism with abstraction, using gestural brushwork and layered surfaces to evoke mood and atmosphere rather than precise detail. His paintings often explore themes of memory and place, capturing fleeting light and seasonal transitions across Midwestern settings. Influenced by American modernists and post-impressionist techniques, Dinsmore’s approach emphasizes the emotional resonance of everyday scenes through a balance of structure and spontaneity.
