    logo_rowegallerySedona AZ (February 4, 2016) – When Dane Chinnock was a child growing up in Tucson and then Prescott, he was fascinated by the colors and smells inside his mom’s paint box. He became serious about art in high school – Dane was the only student in his advanced art class allowed to work with oil paints. But after high school, life got in the way. Dane opened his own business, and set aside his paints until about six years ago when his passion beckoned him back to the easel. “I picked up my paints, and it was as if I had never put them down,” he says.

    20160204_Arivipa-Tributory-20x20-2300Dane studied art with renowned landscape painter Robert Knudson and portrait artist Paul Abbott. His own oil-on-canvas paintings reflect the Southwest landscape he holds so dear. (Dane is an avid backpacker, and he recently began painting en plein air.) Using a palette knife, Dane creates flat edges, sharp lines and enticingly textured images of the Arizona, Colorado and California landscapes. Recently, bronze wildlife sculptor Ken Rowe discovered Dane’s paintings at a Phippen Museum art show and invited Dane to exhibit his work at Rowe Fine Art Gallery. Dane currently has more than a dozen paintings hanging in the space.

    “I am overwhelmingly grateful for the artists like Ken who have come along and offered their support,” says Dane, who still lives in Prescott. “I’ve loved art since I was a kid. Picasso said, ‘Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.’ It looks like I might have finally found a way.”

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
