Today Daniel offers you to take a hot drink and a walk through town to discover his most recent works from the last two years. After exploring Wales and the Portes du Soleil, finding inspiration both close to home and high at altitude, the result is a varied collection of oil landscapes. Works are primarily inspired the light and nature, naturalistic in style with brush strokes that can be seen and admired.
Daniel James Yeomans a étudié l’art du portait dans un atelier traditionnel à Florence nommé ‘Charles Cecil Studios’. C’est là-bas qu’il a découvert la méthode ‘sight size’ couramment utilisée par de nombreux maîtres de la peinture classique. Passionné par le portrait, Daniel continue de peindre selon cette méthode qui requiert la presence continue du sujet et permet de capturer les changements de saisons et de lumière.
Daniel est aujourd’hui un artiste reconnu, dont les peintures sont collectionnées en Europe comme aux Etats-Unis. Au cours des dernières années il a réalisé de nombreux portraits pour ses clients, dont une toile de grande dimension pour le politicien anglais – Lord William Hague. Ses autoportraits sont particulièrement recherchés – 4 ont été acquis par des collectionneurs parmi lesquels figure la Galerie nationale du Pays de Galles. Son autoportrait le plus récent, “Self portrait no.5’, est exposé à Champéry jusqu’à fin janvier.
Aujourd’hui Daniel vous propose de vous promener dans le village, une boisson chaude à la main, à la recherche de ses toiles exposées dans les vitrines des commerces locaux. Pour réaliser ses peintures il a cherché l’inspiration tant dans des lieux familiers que sur les sommets. Son travail, inspiré par la nature et la lumière, se distingue par un coup de pinceau assuré et distinctif que vous pouvez admirer au cours de votre visite.
