Daniel Burns

Even a fleeting encounter with the artist Daniel Burns conveys his infectious love of life. Daniel has also enjoyed considerable success as an illustrator, after abandoning his art education, having felt frustrated and disillusioned with the lack of freedom of expression in a system where he felt lecturers tried to clone artists.

Daniel Burns’ paintings have always been based on the ever changing British Landscape. However, he claims; “the Landscape is almost incidental, my main objectives are to try and capture the atmosphere and ‘spirit’ of a place. Ultimately it is the mood and light within the painting which becomes the central theme.”

Other artists have always provided inspiration for Daniel’s work. He cites Turner, Seago, Carot and Monet to name but a few.
