______________________
Dan McCarthy is a Massachusetts born artist whose quiet paintings and prints transform roadside America into dreamlike memory. Working from a small studio on Cape Cod, he begins each piece with quick notebook sketches made during long drives, capturing telephone poles, empty parking lots and low horizon skies in the soft light of late afternoon. Back at his table he translates these fleeting impressions into layered acrylic washes, allowing the tone of the linen to remain visible so that every image feels weathered by sun and salt air.
His palette leans toward muted ochres, pale blues and dusty roses, colours that echo faded postcards and old cinema posters. Figures appear rarely, and when they do they are turned away or blurred by distance, inviting viewers to inhabit the scene rather than observe a story.
The result is a body of work that feels both intimate and universal, where a single streetlamp can suggest the promise of company or the certainty of solitude.
McCarthy exhibits widely across the United States and Europe, and his affordable screen prints have made his imagery familiar to a generation of collectors seeking calm in an accelerated world. When he is not painting, he scans vintage paper and uploads found photographs to his website, sharing source material freely and encouraging others to look slowly. In this way his canvases become gentle reminders that beauty often hides in plain sight, waiting for anyone willing to pull over, breathe and notice the ordinary glow of an average day.
