Danny Joe Rose III | Further Out
FURTHER OUT
Further out, I see hills unfolding.
The sky opens,
revealing worlds between worlds.
Structures bend and tower over.
The sea swallows me whole.
Once again,
I am.

"I create imagined landscapes inspired by both the natural world and my subconscious. Drawn to the mystery and wonder of the unknown, I seek out strange yet familiar places within my work. Through the interplay of color, form, and texture, I strive to evoke a sense of place and atmosphere. Experimentation fuels my practice, propelling me to explore new ways of engaging with paint and materials."
