Dan May: Painting 2012

December 6, 2012 By Wendy Campbell

More “gentle monsters” from Dan May (featured).  “May is a fine artist currently living in Cincinnati, OH. A native of Rochester, NY, Dan attended Syracuse University where he achieved a BFA and began to immediately pursue his artistic interests. As a modern narrative painter, May cultivates a rich texture of the surreal and mysterious in his highly original flowing style. His detail-intensive works have become widely recognized for their dreamlike ability to transcend the natural states of space and time – mostly due to his usage of a very finely honed usage of line. May’s propensity for using hair as a metaphor has become a focal point that he has built on to speak about larger aspects of humanity as well as the dream world, and gives a strong nod to his progressive personal growth and evolution as an artist.

Dan has exhibited his paintings to consistently growing interest in the gallery world and is enthusiastically held in high regard by collectors the world over. May spends the majority of his time either in the studio creating new and inspiring paintings, or with his lovely wife and business manager, Kendal. His paintings have graced the pages of international publications as Hi Fructose Magazine, DPI and Communication Arts among others.”

Dan May & Jason Limon: Collaboration

September 4, 2010 By Wendy Campbell

I’m loving this new collaborative painting by Dan May (left side) and Jason Limon (right side). Entitled “In the Still of Uncertain Streams”, the painting will be shown at the upcoming Dragon Con – “the largest multi-media, popular culture convention focusing on science fiction and fantasy, gaming, comics, literature, art, music, and film in the universe!” which takes place September 3–6, 2010.

Check out more from these artists at: Dan-May.com and Limon-art.com.

Dan May: Gentle Monsters

July 10, 2009 By Wendy Campbell

When fear Gave Way To Frolic © Dan May

Recently, I came across the work of Dan May and was instantly hooked! Born and raised in the suburbs of Rochester, New York, May has a BFA in illustration from Syracuse University.

Inspired by the world we live in, his personal experiences and thoughts, his wife Kendal, and feisty bird Jax, May’s dreamlike paintings are whimsical and haunting at the same time.   His characters seem melancholy or just pensive in their natural settings – perhaps a commentary on the complex relationship between humans and nature.

May’s artwork has been featured in numerous publications (Wired, LA CityBeat, OUT Magazine, to name a few), and has been shown in galleries across the US and abroad.  Dan currently lives and works in Jacksonville, Florida.

For more information, visit Dan-May.com.
