About the Artist

Daniel Wilson

I create my art because by doing so it gives me a bright and colorful existence in the dark world of chronic pain. My art offers me a meditative, Zen-like, state that transports me to a pain-free zone in my studio. I transfer my pain to the art using a world of colors, textures, design and the added element of poetry. The viewer can visually explore it by looking for clues concerning my pain. Sometimes it is obvious, and at other times it is hidden and obscure. I have a neurological disease, Trigeminal Neuralgia, that produces chronic pain in the face and at this time there is no cure for this condition.
