Colors of Winter

capturing the blues and browns - the hurdles of painting after a break

Winter Colors - digital painting / art prints - Dan Beck 2006
This is my first painting in quite some time - a few weeks anyway. It is fascinating how the urge to create works.
On the one hand, one feels a kind of […]

Sky’s in Disguise

maintaining feeling of dramatic sky

Enlarge DeSkies - Digital Painting / Art Prints - 2006
I am feeling a little hidden - winter hibernation perhaps - working too hard on what seems a futile website reconstruction - and thought - this piece with a pun on disguise kind of fits the bill.
It also looks a bit like […]

Overcast Digital Painting

the color of rain

I have always felt that […]

Color Before Storm

revisiting texture and feeling of abstract rendition of hills

The Hills You Say - digital painting / art prints - Dan Beck
I came across this piece today while making it available again for purchase - I suppose a strange benefit of having to redo the entire shopping cart and database of close to a thousand items. […]

Creative Control

implementing one’s style - being open to what’s not

Quick digital image - for Forgotten Password
Being creative is both about being controlling and being accepting. It is an interesting mix. For there are many times when accepting the seemingly accidental is the best move.
The creative person by necessity makes his mark on the world by communicating his […]
