My name is Frank D’Amico. I was born in Brooklyn, spent most of my life in California and now reside in Olympia. I’ve had a lifelong interest in enjoying and making art. Although I’ve worked in woodcuts, ceramic sculpture and digital art my primary interest has always been painting. While living in the Bay Area I exhibited my work at many regional art shows.
My work is inspired by nature. I am particularly drawn to studying and painting rock formations and the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. I have painted Mt Rainier many times. I’ve been influenced by the work of diverse artists from Henry Moore’s drawings to J.M.W. Turners watercolors. My goal is to interpret the forms and colors of nature through painting.
