Find yourself surrounded by sunflowers, with the sun pouring down on your upturned face. Dawson Shafer's work is full of contrasting colors, bold brushstrokes, and subtle line work enveloping the viewer in a glow of atmosphere and memory. "Each painting is meant to feel less like a snapshot and more like a recollection—as if the viewer is remembering a moment they once lived," explained Dawson.
