BIO:
Born in Montpelier, Vermont, Dan Robertson is a third generation painter following in the footsteps of his grandfather Lloyd Hulbert and mother Babs Robertson. It is also from them that he has acquired his passion for art, antiques and family wisdom. He shows nationally in galleries across Massachusetts, South Carolina and Florida where his work has been purchased in galleries and commissioned by collectors.
He currently works out of his studio in an old barn in Eaton, Ohio while participating in artist’s groups such as the Cannery Art and Design Center in Dayton and the Artist's Group of Charlestown.
Dan works on a variety of mediums including canvas, wood and metals.
As he works on several pieces at once, his irreverent sense of humor and unexpected insights along with advertisements, stamps and other vintage materials – are painted, nailed, glued, shellacked or scratched onto the various canvases. Commissioned work often contains mementos from the buyer’s own history.
