My passion for art started early in life and has never wavered. I am now a full time artist - creating new photographs, paintings, and teaching art classes from my studio in Washington DC. In February of 2002 I left the security of a corporate job to pursue my lifelong aspiration of being a full time artist. I have had to make numerous lifestyle changes in order to afford this decision. Now being outside of the "9 to 5" world, I can see clearly the overwhelming focus on consuming in our society. This ever growing awareness influences the subject matter of my art. Living in DC, I see such a wide range of social and economic conditions. I create images that are a reflection of the people and events that shape my life. To see more of Dana's work visit her website www.danaellynart.com |

Born 1946, in
a rowdy section of Barstow, California. Grew up hard and fast, in
a family that couldn't care less, unless they were drunk. At 14, he
hitchhiked to Muncie, and joined a low-rent circus that was not much
more than a handful of thieves and a couple of perverts in greasepaint.
He loved them all, and they returned the favor by abandoning him one
gelid night on a stretch of rural highway, out where the wind stops
blowing unless you pay it to blow. He nursed his bitterness back to
health, and decided to become a writer. He has written ten novels,
several hundred short stories, and a lot of rent checks, and is resting
comfortably after his fall down a flight of stairs, caused by a sudden
pique of charity. |
