ABOUT
Daniel Price is a self-taught artist. He has developed a reputation for producing almost photographic realism in his watercolor paintings. While he paints several subjects, including landscapes, lighthouses and racing scenes, his primary subject matter is military in nature – both Naval, and Aviation.
PROCESS
Daniel’s work has become extremely well known, and sought after, especially with the military. His finely detailed paintings reflect his passion for both history and the sea. Careful research into all aspects of each painting insures remarkable accuracy and detail. Sailboat racing experience, and time at sea on a square rigger, several submarines and an aircraft carrier give his work the tension and force that bring his scenes to life.
