About Me

My Photo
I'm am blessed to be able to do what I enjoy most every day,and that is paint! I've been drawing and painting since childhood. I have studied under two professional award winning artists for several years. I try to look for beauty in everything I see, and try to relate the way I {SEE} certain things, objects,people & places onto a piece of canvas or paper. If asked I would probably say my work at most times, tends to lean toward an expressive style of impressionism! For lack of a better term :)And here lately it seems as if my work has been taking a turn toward a more abstract approach!

WELCOME TO MY DAILY PAINTING BLOG

Hi, I am a 37 year old full-time impressionist painter living in Wichita KS. I have studied for years under two known artists, and have produced several award winning paintings.My work is strongly influenced by impressionists like, Monet, Cezanne & Pissaro. I have really been inspired by the whole daily painting movement, and it is my goal to paint and post a new painting here every day, or real close to it. These paintings will tend to be rather small in size, and I am making these paintings available to purchase. Starting at only $19 I want to try to keep them affordable & yet keep the quality of the work high! I hope you enjoy viewing my paintings, and I welcome any questions or comments that you may have. Thanks for taking the time to read this & view my site. © 2010 by Dana Chabino -

Bus Rider I - Oil

I frequently take the  city bus back and forth across town, it's cheap plus it gives me the challenge & opportunity to sketch the people riding! Anyway I have a stock pile of gestural sketches that I have decided to make paintings from! Of course the people had no idea that I was even sketching them at the time! So made for a very interesting project! For that they did not to hold still for very long!

Thanks for stopping by!
Best wishes!

Dana
