Artist Name

Dan Bar

Hometown: Chicago

Based in: Key West

As a self taught contemporary artist my works are influenced by everything from the fluidity of a Thomas Hart Benton painting to street art and everything in between. The flow in the works and the juxtaposition of big, bold colors and shapes are the unifying characteristics that define my style.
The move from downtown Chicago to the small island of Key West has changed my pallet from dark to bright bold colors.
