DANIEL MARTIN DIAZ (Tucson) .
Opening Reception with Artist: .
6:00 p.m. - Midnight.
Daniel's work is a culmination of his life's explorations fused with an extraordinary painting style that hauntingly presents a mingling of saints, angels and religious iconography with Latin text and symbology. Each piece is so rich and deep with unique colors that the eyes tour the visual wonderland while the subject matter simultaneously stirs the mind. From the painting, itself, to the impeccably handcrafted frame, this is work that never leaves the viewer.
