Dan Abernathy: an artist and purveyor of words. Dan is well known for his art, and also as a writer. His voice, be it in his words or his art, is a collection of oddities, fascinations, and obsessions – a road map of sorts, tracking the life of a man that can’t and won’t fit in.

Dan’s art has vague borders and parameters, which gives him the freedom to create without restrictions. It is a derivative of his voice. His devotion to art continues to lead him all over the world to compose and share. For, “what best describes an artist is the same thing which describes an adventurer,” he writes. “The longing for something intense, grand, revolutionary, new horizons with different natural laws.”

 

In 2022 was presented with a Certificate of Excellence award at the 2022 Harvest Moon Art Festival in Granbury Texas and was also presented the 610 Arts Award for the most creative and innovative art at the 2022 Ridgeway Rendezvous Art Festival in Ridgeway, Colorado.

 

Since 1980, Abernathy’s home base has been Pinedale, Wyoming, but he is constantly on the road allowing his visual life to expand as he travels the globe, alert for new sights to capture and experience.

  

Dan has devoted his life to perceiving the world through capturing poignant images. He knowingly admits that not all sights and experiences have the same destination of exposing themselves.
