Dan Badgley

My mother was a painter and my father was an architect. I grew up on the central coast of California amongst the beatniks and artists in Big Sur. Used to hang out in my mom’s studio after school. Moved to San Francisco in the mid 1960’s and started painting seriously. I was very influenced by abstract and figurative expressionism going on there at that time. I was showing fairly regularly then. In 2005 I moved to New Mexico and have not looked back!
