Portrait of a Conspiracy Theorist (2015) Painting by Daniel Shor

b.1984

Daniel began his artistic career at the age of 28 when taking a trip over sea's to Europe. The experience in Museo Nacional del Prado in Madrid and in the Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien in Austria laid a permanent impact on his artistic approach that carries through to today. After his journeys in Europe he came back home in search of education which he found at the Academy of Realist Art in Toronto from 2008 - 2012. The school’s curriculum is based on the 19th Century French Academic system made famous by William Bouguereau. The internationally acclaimed artist John Michael Angel started the school during the 1990’s Resurrection of Realism and the academy continues to be the only school in Canada that has kept the excellent standards established during the period of high Realism in 20th Century Europe.

 Dan's work is an impressively realistic painting technique, combined with a composition of movement and beauty. His narrative is to create a positive message and energy using the beauty of people, complimented with beautiful objects.
