About Dan Stone

I dreamed a garden
never ending,
it was all that
I could feel.
I dreamed
a visitation
to a city on a hill,
and as Picasso
said it would,
the dreaming
made it real.
--Dan Stone

I've been accused for most of my life of living in my own little world. In keeping with my fondness for dreams and my calling as a poet and storyteller, my work in photography and visual art has largely focused on the intersection of dream and reality or fantasy, as well as on the picture as poem or story. Although the images I've created range from more traditional straightforward color or black-and-white photography to somewhat surrealistic digital artwork, my 'style' if I have one, leans more toward what I suppose could be called magic realism, where elements of fantasy or the the fantastical combine with the real or 'mundane' or where, simply put, magic is real and the real world is magical.

Although I enjoy traditional digital photography, the large majority of my work is created using my iPhone camera and a variety of apps for editing and post-processing. Despite the phone camera's limitations, I love the spontaneous capture of images that it makes possible and the incredible convenience of carrying a fully equipped photo processing studio in my pocket.

Partly as a result of my preferred methodology and partly due to the nature of the images I create, I enjoy referring to myself as an 'iMagician'. Besides loving dreams--and the endless beauty of the natural world--I'm also a believer in the magic of the unseen world and the joys and possibilities of a magical life.

I hope that as an 'iMagician' my art work invites the viewer to, at least for a moment, suspend his or her disbelief, step away from the doubts and disappointments of 'the real world' and step into a world where magic is real and where dreams do come true. In other words--into my world.
