DAN BUTLER

Dan Butler is, for the most part, self-taught and has been drawing and painting for as long as he can remember. Recently, Dan has worked primarily in colored pencil, ink and graphite, but he continues to experiment in water color and oil.

Dan has won awards at juried shows and has pieces in varied private and corporate collections. He currently has work in Knott's Art Gallery of Eastport, Maine, and ARTisZEN ARTS of Lambertville, New Jersey. He has also exhibited work in Gallery 20, The Reading Public Museum, The Goggle Works, The RJCC Art Gallery and various smaller venues, all in the Reading,Pennsylvania, area. Dan also accepts commissions.

"Artist's Statements are commonplace in museums and galleries, but, to quote my favorite artist, Edward Hopper, 'If I could say it in words there would be no reason to paint.'"
