Dan,
We loved the evocative paintings and the people at your opening, especially the old friends from Delhi. It was like wandering through the old neighborhood again! What a great show.
Namaste & Chuuuuuuuuuaaaaapppppp,

I was at Dan’s show in New York and it was one of his most beautiful shows I have seen. He is such a talented artist and one of the sweetest people I know. I love him like a brother, because he is mine and I could not be prouder of anything in the world. I love him.

Hello/Bon Jour,

I for one did not know of the artist Dan Rizzie at all. One lovely evening several weeks ago I was taking an evening stroll and came across an event spilling out into the street attended by many happy and how do you say, energetic persons. I stopped and to my amazement the most interesting forms of art were displayed beautifully by this artist Dan Rizzie. I too gravitated toward him and was pleased to make his acquaintance enjoying his energy and how do you say, vibe. I found him to be an artful and engaging person whose words are only matched by the beauty of his works of art. Interesting and arresting they both were or so it seemed to me and to everyone that evening. So, to this artist Dan Rizzie I toast my glass again and thank him for his contribution to our World in which we live. Debbie

Thanks for writing about one of my favorite artists. I’ve known Dan for a long time and worked with him here at Flatbed Press. An observation I have about his works is how they seem to mirror in an abstract way the time and place that he is when is makes his works. Birds perch, strange flowers bloom, shapes amusingly float in a space that is both only paint and paper but also a matrix of time. I can sense him there in the midst of his life.
Hooray for Rizzie!
