His own artistic creations began with geometric constructions, but over time he progressed to fractal art and animation. Daniel is at the forefront of a new art form made possible by high-powered computers that intersects art and science. His work has been featured at Wondrous on Witherspoon and the West Windsor Art Center’s STEAM exhibit. He is resident of Plainsboro, New Jersey and working toward a college degree in Computer Science."⁠ ⁠ ➡️The Blank Canvas Gala and Art Auction showcases original works created by some of the region’s most talented artists, who were each given a 12” x 12” blank canvas on which to create a new work of art. Our Blank Canvas Gala and Art Auction will be held on March 21, 2020, from 6-10 p.m. - a lively evening of amazing art and wonderful food, music and live entertainment – and the opportunity to go home with an original work of art, a fine bottle of wine, a beautiful centerpiece and many special memories.

Blank Canvas Artist Spotlight: Kathleen Liao⁠
Kathleen Hurley Liao is a graduate of Barnard College, Columbia University, with a BA in Anthropology. Her interest in a diverse array of multicultural art and music forms, combined with her passion for the intricacies of jazz music, inspire her mixed media abstract art. She begins each piece in the style of "automatism," and then allows the work to grow of its own accord. Hurley Liao has recently returned from a month-long artist residency at Chateau d"Orquevaux, France, where she explored themes of passion and vulnerability in her acrylic paintings and collages. "Labor with your Soul" is the first piece she created upon her return from Orquevaux. ⁠
