Artwork Description

Dan Miller's art is a graphic communication made in the moment. His paintings and drawings convey thoughts, recorded and repeatedly overdrawn until the imagery forms a visual cloud with a seemingly audible presence. The abstract, gestural expressions use color, density, and scale to convey the ideas and feelings that Miller, who is on the autism spectrum, is unable to express verbally.
