Home

Daniel Kanow’s art represents the ethos of adversity and resiliency. His process builds multi-layered pieces of art, based on elements of organized chaos, which are dynamic and contemplative. He works with aggressive and energetic mark-making, applies large amounts of paint, and uses pallet knives, large brushes, and other non-traditional instruments in both additive and subtractive methods to construct and deconstruct his compositions. Daniel works on canvas, paper, wood panel, and fiberglass to create layers of depth and translucency by building a rich and visual narrative history.

Making art for Daniel Kanow is a meditation. He loves to paint, draw, and sculpt both expressively and figuratively. Daniel’s interest lies in the deep places of emotion that tell personal and universal narratives of fear, pain, love and beauty. His art acts as a conduit or bridge into these places so that seeds of presence and life may be abundant to fill emotional voids. Daniel’s process is dynamic and he invites the viewer to immerse themselves into their own stories so that the artwork may create a personal resonance. Daniel Kanow lives in Telluride, Colorado with his family and is currently pursuing his MFA in Painting at the Academy of Art University in CA where he is enlarging his horizons of creativity and opportunity. Art, family, and wilderness are his anchors for inspiration and motivation.
