Daniel Tousignant

"I love recalling collective memories of peaceful horizons, creating environments with open, expansive, clear horizons; an old tree, a vista of pastureland, and the distant billowing clouds of my lazy youth."

Daniel's paintings are layered; a kind of soft flowing across every inch of the surface. Tousignant (Who works from memory) says that he makes paintings basically from start to finish over a several month period (nights included.) Tousignant captures a particular subject and moment in each piece.

Discovering Tousignant's Horizon paintings is like discovering the landscape itself — that pleasant sensation when you look to the sky and see the Cloudscape open up before you. Each of us views the sky in both unique and universal ways. All of us can look at the same sky but each persons preference affects his or her Appreciation of that sky. The Rolling hills with the soft shadows of the Clouds suggests movement, and a soft subtle breeze.
