Dan Muller
"The Fish, " Colorful Mixed Media Abstract Collage by Dan Muller

1999-2004

About the Item

"The Fish" is an original mixed media artwork on paper by Dan Muller. The artist signed the piece. The artist used watercolor, cut & pasted paper, and india ink to create this colorful piece. This artwork features an abstracted fish in the primary colors. 13" x 20 1/2" art Custom framing is available 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.
