Daniel P. Simard

Multi-faceted artist Daniel P. Simard enjoys working in charcoal, pastel, oil, acrylic, wood, pewter, bronze and granite.

The sculptor works to provoke contemplation or meditation. The painter seeks to reconstruct life, enabling it to burst forth in all its intoxicated glory. The realization of a piece is like a game of chess.

Regardless of medium, Simard lets himself be guided by what he calls the gestural motion, dictating the verve of the sculpture, the sequencing of colours on the canvas.
