S. & C. 2.0 32"
x 62" acrylic on canvas (sold) (
Born in the midwestern united states, DL hit the road at age 19 to tour
as a musician all across the US and Europe. He first visited Alaska in
1989 while touring with the band "Pretty Boy" and subsequently
returned with the group "Mariah", whose albums still sell around
the world today. In 1995 he moved his home to the great state and opened
"Alaska Hit Factory," a recording studio where he produced multiple
award winning projects.
Looking for a new outlet for
his creativity, in 1996 DL began to experiment by painting murals on the
walls of his recording studio. Enjoying his newfound expression, he soon
after moved to canvas. Today,
the work is large scale acrylic on canvas. The frames are hand made from
hard woods and gallery wrapped one-by-one. The bold, contrasting colors
and careful layering give the paintings an evocative sense of depth which
is very difficult to photograph. If you would like to view some of these
works in person, you can go to:

A Gallery of Fine and Functional
Art.
