Installations Lease and/or Purchase Plans There are many times when a museum, organization, event, historical society, cause or corporation is in need of a temporary or permanent installation. Some may want to captivate people's attention to please and draw them in, others may want to raise awareness of their mission, still others may want to use it strictly for educational purposes. Whatever the reason, Daniel's installations will bring ambiance and spirit to liven up any space, public or otherwise. Daniel has done many installations for a variety of different types of facilities. These installations are not always a permanent fixture but rather sometimes a temporary lease. Pieces can be set up on location or shipped for use on location depending upon type of piece, distance and arrangements. Many of his Sculptures, Conventional Paintings and Toile de Lumiers are available for a lease option {short term or long term}. He is also willing to consider commissioned installations with outright purchase or purchase agreements. Daniel is a very versatile artist... Sculptures, Conventional Paintings, Toile de Lumiers {canvas of light}, traditional murals, panel murals, room decals and translucent window tiles. If you are looking for something different that captures nature or have an idea or place or subject matter that needs justice done to it Daniel always loves a challenge; It never hurts to ask. Here are some of Daniel's favorite Installations... "Grand" Installation!
