A gifted wildlife artist, David Plank, also known as the Birdman of Salem, had a special passion for painting birds in watercolor. His goal was never simply to create a beautiful picture, but to capture the spirit of each bird and convey the emotion he experienced. His work has been featured in numerous magazines and books and won many awards and recognitions. Through every painting, he offered viewers his own heartfelt interpretation of the natural world, bringing its beauty, grace, and wonder to life with remarkable talent and patience.
-------
David Plank passed away on August 12, 2026. SHSMO has about 200 of his paintings in our collection, some recently donated by the artist. Image: "Baltimore Orioles Pair" by David Plank, 1993, watercolor on paper.
