Dan is currently living in Jersey in the Channel Islands, having set up a studio in Rozel Bay on the North-East coast. Throughout his career, Dan has been strongly influenced by the extraordinary and varied landscapes in which he has lived.
Dan studied Fine Art-painting in London before travelling to New Zealand where he lived for 5 years.
After his time in New Zeland, Dan moved to Laos, South East Asia, for a year, working from a studio on the banks of the Mekong River and drawing inspiration from the stunning landscape and Buddhist traditions and motifs. His time here resulted In some very expressive abstract work that has influenced his current landscapes.
Before moving to Jersey in the Channel Islands, he settled back in London and continued to work as a painter consistently exploring new techniques and approaches.
Daniel’s world view currently finds expression in bright, vivid canvases; portraying both the beautiful colour and light of the Jersey countryside and even the everyday, even, mundane and unnoticed spaces that surround us.
