Daniel Wall Art For Sale

Daniel Wall, Chinese (1965 - )

Daniel Wall was born in China in 1965 and began drawing and painting at the age of 4. His first art teacher was his mother, a talented and diligent self-taught artist. Wall earned numerous art awards in his childhood and was accepted into a fine art academy when he reached his teens. He went on to study in China, Italy and the United States.

Wall took every opportunity to draw or paint after school, earning numerous art awards in his youth. At 16 years old, Wall received a government scholarship to study art at Laiyang Teachers College, an academy that only accepts a handful of students every year.

Following his graduation in 1983, Wall worked as a full-time art professor in the Teacher’s College in his hometown and later furthered his education by graduating from Shandong University of Arts in 1987. After graduating, Wall worked as an illustrator and fine art editor for the “Fire Fighter Journal” of Shandong Province and eventually earned his Master's degree from Georgia Southern University, USA

Wall describes his art as “Intense Impressionism,” and as a means of extending the Impressionist approaches made famous in the 19th Century into the 21st Century. He views his work as a reflection of contemporary times.

Influenced by the Impressionists, principally Monet, Pissarro, Sisley and Seurat, Wall has extended the concepts of the impressionists into a contemporary dialog. The idea of allowing the brushwork to be fully evident, and even imbuing his pigment applications with expressionist energy re-invigorates the impressionist style and has allowed Wall to find his own unique approach.

His paintings continue to be widely collected in the United States and around the World.
