Nestled along the picturesque banks of the Hudson River, the charming town of Piermont, New York, is home to a unique artistic treasure: Dan Lukens. Known for his stunning depictions of local landscapes, Lukens has spent decades honing his craft while deeply immersing himself in the environment that inspires his work. From the tranquil banks of the Hudson River to the rolling hills and quaint streets, Lukens has made it his mission to capture the heart and soul of his home.

With work characterized by subtle colors and expressive brushwork; Luken’s approach to painting is deeply personal and contemplative. Using a combination of traditional materials and innovative techniques, he creates textures and depth that bring his landscapes to life.

He often ventures out into the field with easel in tow, to capture the scenes before him. This plein air approach allows him to immerse himself in the moment, translating the ephemeral qualities of light and atmosphere onto his canvases. Back in his home studio, Lukens then refines these piecess into fully realized works.

In an age where the hustle and bustle of modern life often overshadow the quiet beauty of small town life, Dan Lukens stands out as a beacon of artistic dedication. His work not only enriches the cultural fabric but also encourages others to find and cherish the beauty in their own surroundings. His paintings offer a reminder of the beauty that exists in the simplicity of everyday scenes.
