Danny McCaw is the youngest son of American expressionist Dan McCaw, and the brother of abstract painter John McCaw. He began drawing and painting at an early age, where materials and encouragement were in abundance. His youthful drawings and paintings soon developed into mature sensitive individual statements.
Danny’s admiration for traditional art and its disciplines have been the foundation for his own art. His appreciation for the freedom, exploration and discovery of the Expressionists has shown him the importance of individuality and creativity. Danny’s life is constantly immersed in a rich atmosphere of painters, poets, and photographers, where the air is filled with creativity and imagination.
Besides the constant guidance of his father, Danny has studied art at El Camino College, the Scottsdale Art School and with one of America’s leading figurative painters, Steve Huston. Awarded the Wright Foundation Scholarship in 2002, Danny’s search for his own individuality is of the utmost importance. His art is full of honesty, and creativity is constantly enriched by his inquisitive nature, his desire to find his own voice and his effort to create lasting art.
