ALASTAIR DACEY | About The Artist:
Alastair attended the Rhode Island School of Design, Ingbretson Studios and Cecil Studios in Florence, Italy.
Wandering initially from bold abstract and color plane paintings to delicate linear musings with ink and pencil, Alastair eventually came to focus on careful observation and interpretive realism. Nineteenth century aesthetics and academic traditions became his guide -with a generous smattering of Impressionism. Applying his training and historical sensibilities, he treats painting as a feat of craftsmanship and a challenge to freshly, inventively perceive.
Alastair co-curated the 2016 exhibition “Illuminating Tarbell, Legacy in Action” and is an active painting and drawing instructor. His work is in noteworthy collections including the St. Botolph Club and the New Hampshire State House. Alastair has fulfilled many notable commissioned portraits as well as commissioned figurative and landscape paintings. He lives and works in Portsmouth NH.
