“Daniel Tousignant's scenes of perfectly clouded blue skies
and topiary-type trees on lush beds of grass are dreamscapes that we
want to hold onto. Detailed views of other "botanicals" draw us 
deeper into the elements that make up these compositions.”
- Sabine for ArtMoCo

New Painting by 
Painter
Daniel Tousignant 

"Looking at the work of San Francisco artist Daniel Tousignant is like staring at a freeze frame of the best dream you've ever had, and the effect is a sudden wash of chest-clutching happiness. The beauty evoked by his landscape is so intense that it elevates them into the realm of abstraction, even though on the surface they're utterly representative. There is some living depth, all the more fascinating for its hiddenness, breathing behind every leafy branch. The artist says that trees reflect the beauty and vulnerability of all living things. Maybe this vulnerability is what we see just under the surface of his canvasses, and what elicits such a visceral reaction to his work." Barcelona, Spain, Metropolitan Magazine
