“A Path To A Cure” by Daniel Pollera
Today’s WOW, “A Path To A Cure” by artist Daniel Pollera, is special for 2 reasons. The first one, obviously, is the painting itself. Yes, it’s a painting. An impressive, almost breathtaking, piece of art. The second reason is related to its title, because this painting was commissioned by the Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation.
Signed posters of “A Path To A Cure” will also be available to the public at the Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation’s annual A Hamptons Happening on July 11, 2015. All proceeds will go to the Foundation.
Daniel Pollera’s interest in art began at a very young age gravitating toward drawing and painting the surrounding coastline of Long Island. After a short study at SUNY Farmingdale in Commercial Art, he left to enter the family business and for almost 15 years Daniel took a sabbatical from painting. He obtained a Captain’s License in 1977 from the United States Coast Guard and took passengers for hire on the open ocean. Through this experience and visual knowledge he was drawn to begin his painting again.
Although Daniel is primarily self taught he worked with Frances Norris Streit, a portrait and mural artist, assisting her on a 14’ X 30’ historical mural for the Roslyn Savings Bank. He also studied with Everett Molinari, a well respected President of the National Mural Society.
Daniel Pollera captivates his admirers by inspiring emotion and feeling through light and composition in his work.
