SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - May 10, 2021 - Royse Contemporary is excited to present "Everything Belongs to the Sun", showcasing the last painting collection of Daniel Shepherd. Inspiration for this new work was "a new beginning, our world is different than it was and I wanted to create a vibrant colorful promise of hope and tranquility." Shepherd has created a beautiful collection of minimal abstract paintings with an evocative use of color that engages the viewers senses, states Curator, Nicole Royse.

Shepherd is a self-taught artist based in Phoenix who is creating vibrant abstract paintings and fantastic vintage collages.

Shepherd is currently represented by Royse Contemporary in Scottsdale Arizona .
