Artist Statement:
I value a rich interior life. I believe that craftsmanship and creativity are of equal importance.
All the stories and pictures that I have seen in my childhood and throughout my life inspire me. The nostalgia created by the passage of time gives objects, ideas, and images a heightened pleasurable feeling. I look for this feeling when I am choosing the imagery that goes into my art pieces. This gives me a strong connection and belief in the work, and hopefully inspires the recollection of memories in others.
It is not until I have reached a level of completion in a work that I begin to consider the meanings behind the composition and juxtapositions. It’s as if the animals, foliage, objects, figures etc. are a vessel for the everyday relationships and happenings in my life. When my life moves on, so do the meaning I thrust upon my artwork. In this way anybody can find meaning, or create their own stories, by looking at my pictures.

Biography:
Dan May is an American painter and printmaker born on March 11, 1955 in San Francisco, CA. Raised in aesthetic surroundings heavily influenced by his architect father, May grew up learning to view all things with an eye for design, color, and shape. At age 5, he remembers his father cutting up a book of drawings by Henri Matisse and hanging them on the walls of their home. The French master Matisse as well as Richard Diebenkorn and David Hockney are his favorite art influences. He began his first attempts at painting at age 15, and later began to experiment with printmaking, teaching himself various techniques such as woodblock printing, etching, silkscreen printing, and monoprinting.
Monoprinting soon became May's medium of choice due to its wide range of expression and spontaneity that he felt other techniques lacked. May - "With monoprinting, you can only work a piece for as a long as the paint stays wet, so the resulting print has a feeling of movement and immediacy. I also like how monoprinting allows the brush strokes to transfer a transparent light quality to the print. For me, this is a technique that bridges drawing...
