Coastal Redux Series

Fata Morgana Series

St. Louis artist Dan Gualdoni presents paintings on panel which significantly extend the scale of his previous work. The atmospheric landscape images offer the soft, glowing surfaces usually associated with encaustic. “These paintings are part of a series of works entitled Fata Morgana. The title is an allusion to an illusion. The title Fata Morgana serves as a metaphorical image to suggest ways in which painting can tell us about perception of our environment and the ways of our own self-perception.”
