Daniel Asselin

Born in Montreal, Quebec (Canada), August 04, 1956.
At a young age, I was drawn to drawing.
In 2004, I started drawing classes, which continued in 2005 and 2006. At first, I worked with lead pencil. But I soon moved on to black ink. I developed a black and white negative style.

My first experiments were with charcoal. After several attempts, I found a technique that satisfied me much more.
In 2013, I started mixing black ink and lead pencil in the same drawing, which allowed me to experiment again. After a few months, I was feeling inspired.
Looking for new possibilities, my curiosity was drawn to oil painting. Listening to my inner voice, I set about this new technique.
In 2014, I took 2 sessions of oil painting classes with Guy Baillargeon and in 2015 I continued with Christiane Monast.

I love painting realism while remaining open to other discoveries. People, nature and everyday life are a great source of inspiration for me.
I love the tranquility of nature, which allows me to take my time, listen to myself, analyze and understand myself better, and let myself go creatively.
I've poured all my joy, love and heart into these drawings and oil paintings, hoping to pass on my joy to you.

All my oil paintings are done on gallery frames. I invite you to visit my website at www.danielasselin.com to see all my works, by-products, upcoming exhibitions and paintings. Enjoy your visit
