We are thrilled to have art work by Dolan Geiman in DaVallia. Dolan is a nationally recognized mixed media artist creating original paintings, collages, constructions, and limited-edition reproductions. Produced from salvaged wood, found objects, and other recycled materials, Geiman's eco-friendly artwork emerges from a folk art tradition infused with a contemporary, urban style.Originally from Virginia's Shenandoah Valley, Geiman currently lives and works in Chicago along with wife and business partner Ali Marie Geiman. His artwork has broad appeal to collectors and decorators alike, successfully weaving together rural with urban, vintage with contemporary. Motifs such as birds, woodland creatures, music, and Americana are popular and recurring themes, creating an artwork that introduces a modern aesthetic while remaining true to its rustic roots.
Geiman’s mixed media works on wood are created on discarded wood panels, otherwise in route to the landfill.
The paint used in these works is recycled household paint available to the public via the City of Chicago’s paint exchange program. Silk screened images are produced via water-based inks.
Come by the gallery to see this beautiful collection of art!!
