Daniel Lukens

A life-long Rockland native, I earned a BFA from Purchase College in 1979 though drawing and painting have been a passion since early childhood. 

 The beauty in the world and the good in it, are in the things we choose to see, appreciate and find value in. In exploring the often overlooked aspects of daily life, I find the points of reflection that are my inspiration.

My exhibition credits include the Purchase College Visual Arts Gallery and the Neuberger Museum. In more recent years, exhibitions include the Blue Hill Cultural Arts Center, the Outside In gallery, the Corner Frame Shop, the Darvin Gallery, Ned Kelly and Company, the Volition Gallery, the Renaissance Gallery and the Pride Show at the Rockland Center for the Arts. The (RBA) Rockland Business Association’s Membership Directory has featured my work on their journal cover in 2020, 2021 and 2022. And, in 2022 and 2023 I exhibited at the Union Arts Center in Sparkill, NY. 

An avid plein air artist, I paint with the Pier Plein Air painters .
