Daniel Van der Putten art

Daniel Van der Putten art Music, Ernesto Cortazar Daniel Van der Putten was born in a small farming village near Leyden in Holland. Initially he worked for his father in the family horticulture business, but found that his desire to paint was too strong to ignore. This desire and ability, no doubt, was inherited from his mother, and also his aunt who was a professional portrait artist and exhibited mainly in Holland and America. On a visit to Australia, Daniel met his Scottish wife and on their return went to live in Scotland. They worked together from the start and researched and studied various techniques of painting primarily those of the Great Dutch Masters, giving attention to observing the natural landscape wherever they travelled. Daniel was particularly inspired by the British landscape, and shortly after moving down to England became a full-time painter. His desire was to faithfully depict the British countryside in its differing seasons. Dani
