Description
Dan McGrath enjoys the outdoors: hiking, kayaking, and Plein Air painting. Drawn to out of the way streams, fields, and marshes and barns. The coastal areas of California, Georgia, and the Carolinas are a rich source of subjects reflecting the many moods of marshes, sea and sky. McGrath is a second-career artist, painting since 2001. Always attracted to water: swimming, sailing, skin diving and sea kayaking. He fell in love with Coastal Georgia. Fellow plein air painter George Netherton of St. Simon’s Island has been a painting companion, mentor, teacher and friend. McGrath is the founder and president of Plein Air Painters of the Bluegrass. McGrath has studied with Kevin Menck, Booth Malone, Bill Fletcher, Kim Casebeer, Roger Dale Brown and Jason Saunders. He’s a member of the Oil Painters of America and the American Society of Marine Artists and maintains a studio/gallery in Lexington, Kentucky and is represented by galleries in Kentucky and Ohio. He enjoys traveling to the Georgia and Virginia coasts for plein air painting. Dan McGrath Fine Art danmcgrathstudio.com
