Daniel A. Brown, Greenfield

Daniel A. Brown was born in New York City in 1950 and has been a resident of Western Massachusetts since 1970. Growing up along New York’s “Museum Alley,” he began painting at the age of 15 after viewing Vincent Van Gogh’s ethereal “Starry Night.” In 1998, he came back to painting after a 27-year hiatus. He also got his pilot's license and discovered night flying. Gazing down at the winter landscapes of my Pioneer Valley after sunset, he found an engaging fairyland world, not unlike what Van Gogh painted a century past. Surprised and encouraged, he began painting this present series of images which reflect the combination of vivid colors, clouds, and sky. Over the years since then, Dan has exhibited at galleries and art festivals from Maine to Pennsylvania including solo shows in New York City, Boston and Taos, New Mexico. His work is currently represented by Foxhall Gallery in Washington DC.

Dan once told us that his work has been described as “Peter Max meets Grandma Moses.” We think it’s an apt description!
