Statement

Working exclusively in charcoal, Dan uses a photo realistic style that mimics photography to the point that extra signage has been displayed with his work, confirming that these are drawings, not photos. He loves shadows, contrast, anonymity & using negative space in his compositions. His gifted eye catches timeless ?fragments? of life in his work----- whether it?s the intricate lines of the human hand, or the delicate folds of a garment, they are drawn in detailed simplicity. The mystery of his work lets the viewer use their imagination to interpret the meaning behind each compelling image.
