Dan Landrie




Hello everyone it's a pleasure to be here and I look forward to sharing both my works and thoughts on art with all that will look and listen. I've learned a great deal from this site already.
Although I've been painting and drawing for a long time I'm just a beginner when it comes to portraits and so I look forward to any and all advice. I've attended peair school of art (back when it was just an art school) and just recently obtained an associate in fine arts degree from one of the local community colleges.

Very interesting work, Dan! I like your distinctive style and your confident "drawing" marks. I'm looking forward to your participation in the Forum.

Nice to meet you, Dan.

Nice work. Your drawing is especially nice in its simplicity and strength of graphic design. I am looking forward to seeing more.
