Whisper

Dan May is a fine artist currently living in Chicago, IL. A native of Rochester, NY, Dan attended Syracuse University where he achieved a BFA and began to immediately pursue his artistic interests. As a modern narrative painter, May cultivates a rich texture of the surreal and mysterious in his highly original flowing style. His detail-intensive works have become widely recognized for their dreamlike ability to transcend the natural states of space and time – mostly due to his usage of a very finely honed usage of line. May’s propensity for using hair as a metaphor has become a focal point that he has built on to speak about larger aspects of humanity as well as the dream world, and gives a strong nod to his progressive personal growth and evolution as an artist. Dan has exhibited his paintings to consistently growing interest in the gallery world and is enthusiastically held in high regard by collectors the world over. May spends the majority of his time in the studio, painting new wonders or challenging his lovely wife Kendal to unscheduled debates on pro wrestling theory. His paintings have graced the pages of international publications as Hi Fructose Magazine, DPI and Communication Acrylic paint is fast drying paint containing pigment suspension in acrylic polymer emulsion. Acrylic paints can be diluted with water, but become water-resistant when dry. Depending on how much the paint is diluted (with water) or modified with acrylic gels, media, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble a watercolor or an oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics not attainable with other media. 'Gentle Creatures' is an online show that features a series of new drawings and paintings. "Hello, I would like to thank everyone who has been supporting my work along the way, and welcome the many newcomers who have joined the mailing list in the recent weeks. I am pleased to present my latest exhibition, Gentle Creatures. This selection of work features a mixture of drawings and paintings that will set the tone for my future work. I am really excited to share this body of work and hope that you enjoy the images. Sales for this show will be handled a bit differently than my shows in the past. I would like everyone to have a chance to 'preview' the exhibit beforehand in an attempt to get work into the hands of those who may have missed out in the past.
