As found on CrystalFoxGallery:
Dan was born in the Seattle area and comes from a family of artists. His creations include the spectacular rainbow vase as well as a range of elegant fluted mirror vases just to name a few. His glass studies began in 1984 at the renowned Pilchuck Glass School in Stanwood, WA and at the Pratt Fine Arts Center. Dan studied with such internationally known artists as Richard Marquis, Dante Marioni, Michael Glancy, and the Italian master, Lino Tagliapietra.
Dan's work ranges from richly colored natural flowing designs and classic shaped vessels with dichroic inclusions to sculptural pieces using sandcarving and electroforming techniques. He is drawn to the interplay of color, form and optical qualities inherent in glass. It is the only medium he has found to offer such a wide range of visual qualities. From bold striking images to the sublime and fluid optical characteristics of solid pieces, glass stands alone in its diversity and beauty.
Dan currently produces art in his own glassblowing facility that he built and maintains in the Seattle area. Recently he has been exploring the possibilities of creating blown glass light fixtures and also incorporating glass into the fabrication of waterfalls.
