Dale McEntire
A native of Western North Carolina, Dale has been involved in the visual arts since his training at Mercer University, and has continued to evolve as an artist through private studies in the U.S. and Europe, and training at Penland School of Craft.
His interest in the spiritual essence of nature can be seen in his use of color and form. Dale produces both oil and pastel paintings and sculpture (combining stone, steel, cast glass, wood) out of his studio in Saluda, North Carolina.
Dale is represented by galleries in Western North Carolina and for the past several years has been selected to participate in public art events and outdoor sculpture shows. Dale is also a member of Tryon Painters and Sculptors and Tri-State Sculptors.
“A movement of painters and sculptors identified as “Nature Symbolist” has inspired me to create work that is about the essential quality of nature. For me, this is a spiritual essence that is underneath the obvious form and can be sensed with time and awareness.
