Daniel S. Looney, American “Artist for All Seasons,” has been painting professionally since 1975. His emphasis is on combining real world scenes with the moods and textures of nature, using his creativity and imagination. By utilizing mixed media, watercolor, oil, acrylic, pen & ink, gouache, and collage, Dan’s goal is to create artwork with a unique and breath-taking perspective. Dan truly believes that “Time is short and art is long” as penned by Longfellow. Dan’s artwork has been included in such exhibitions as Watercolor USA, American Watercolor Society, Boise Museum of Art, Kimball Art Center, Utah, numerous universities, over 45 one-man shows in Europe, and the Idaho Watercolor Society of which Dan was a charter member and first regular President. Current Secretary of the Interior and former Idaho Governor, Dirk Kempthorne, presented Dan’s paintings as gifts to the Mayors of Brighton, England, London, England, and Paris, France. Dan has also published his book, “ARTWORKS,” a 52-page book of original art including 28 full-color images, with narrative and interview. Copies of “ARTWORKS” and many of Dan’s paintings and art prints have been purchased by corporations and individuals from all fifty states as well as over 20 foreign countries. In February 2008, after eight years in McCall, Dan Looney Gallery & Studio relocated to the Treasure Valley and is currently inside Sevoy Antiques, 3408 Chinden Blvd, Garden City. His artwork is represented in McCall by the Artizen Gallery. Dan’s artwork can also be viewed at www.imagemaker.org/artist/danlooney. Dan continues to offer watercolor workshops and he is available to discuss new commissions or personalized embellishments or hand-painting on the mats and frames of any of his prints or originals.
