About Daniel Stroup

 
 
  • Biography

    I'm a self-taught artist working primarily in acrylics, watercolor, and gouache. My unique style fuses texture,  abstract concepts, and expressionist brushwork. I often combine imagery of decay, corrosion, and chaos with elements of structure and form. Tension and imbalance counter dirty landscapes of a dystopian future. My works represent my own blurry memories and interpretations of experiences, life events, and personal struggles. My canvas bears the scars, wounds and emotional toll that oftentimes builds over one's life.

     

    I live with my wife in the greater Seattle area. Feel free to contact me about my work, or you can link up with me on social media at one of the web links located on this page.
