Dan Muller
'A Summer Landscape, ' Original Watercolor Painting, Signed

1993

About the Item

This is a small and intimate example of the watercolor paintings of Dan Muller. The image shows an expressive landscape with a saturated blue sky, red rocks, and green and yellow foliage. Muller uses a painterly approach to the landscape, allowing the hand of the artist and the materials to come into the forefront rather than allowing the Romantic tradition of landscape painting to dominate. The image is thus in line with the landscapes of early American modernists like John Marin and Max Weber. 8.5 x 11 inches, artwork 13.13 x 17.13 inches, frame Mounted in a shadow-box style frame, built to conservation standards using 100 percent archival materials and within in a 1.5-inch deep medium wood moulding. Overall excellent condition; some planar distortion to paper original to artwork; minor scratches on frame. Born in 1960 in Miles City, Montana, Dan spent most of his childhood in the Southern and central regions of Wisconsin. Dan's work is centered on the idea of using successive layers of transparent and opaque pigment along with pigment-impregnated rice paper to create a density of color that would not be possible solely by direct painting on the surface of the paper itself. He works to achieve an interplay of shapes and colors which will exist with equal freedom within that defined space, while striving to obtain a feeling of expansiveness no matter what the actual scale piece is.
