  • Art of the Day: “Death is a Messy Bizness” by Dan Harding

    Dan Harding just shared a new painting that he will have in a group show coming this December. The show is at the Hyaena Gallery in Burbank, CA and is entitled “Kill Your Idols”. I think it’s a great idea to push past the artists that inspired you, and use the painting to show that you are moving forward with your style and taking in new influences. Here is the painting Dan is submitting, after the jump take a look at some of the paintings that inspired this one, as well as a statement from Dan about the piece.

  • Review: “Dementions” @ Eclectix Gallery

    On Friday Eclectix Gallery opened it’s Fourth Halloween themed group show, “Dementions”. There were 50 artists participating in the show, Dan Harding, Scott Hove, Sean Chappell, Brooke Kent, Jackie Gallagher, Buddy Nestor, Dean McDowell, Isabel Samaras and many more. This was the first time that I had been to the new location of Eclectix. The space is much bigger with the shop downstairs and the gallery space upstairs. The weather that night wasn’t that bad, but upstairs in the gallery the temperature was that of a hot summer day. So it was a good idea for me to take a break outside, get some fresh air and wait for the crowd to cool down anyway.

    Dan Harding just added a couple of new original paintings to his online shop. The shop is also a new addition to his homepage, with a good amount of art available.

    The first painting is entitled “Incomplete” and is 8″ x 10″ oil on canvas, then there is “The Strange” 9″ x 12″ oil on canvas. Both of these new paintings are just amazing, the expressions, details and even the colors, which seem to compliment each other so that both paintings seem like they were designed to be shown together. His technical skill along with with his concepts, both dark and humor filled are always a surprise, he never ceases to amaze me. Both these paintings are available as well, and sure to go quick.

  • New originals by Dan Harding

    Dan Harding has just finished a bunch of new work and has put up four new paintings for sale. Each one of these paintings are oil on canvas, 8″ x 10″. You can see that the color palette is very similar throughout, so it’s a series of portraits that he has done. I’m sure they would look amazing all framed up and hung in a row. Each individual painting is $180 or you can get all 4 for $550.00 unframed $600.00 framed.

  • “Good Boy” by Dan Harding

    I featured this painting by Dan Harding a while back, but just noticed that it has been added to the Hyaena Gallery store. The painting was for the Gruesome Art Ghoullery at Fangoria’s Weekend of Horrors this past April. I’m surprised the painting did not sell. Not only is Dan an amazing painter but the image while very dark is a must have for anyone’s collection.
    Edit: the piece is on view for Hyaena Gallery’s Albrecht Durer secret show Here

    Looks like Dan will also have some work in the upcoming Albrecht Durer show this May 8th.
    Head on over and check it out.
