In Focus Podcast

Episode 30

I’ve been creating art since I was a young boy.

David B. Dauer

Welcome, Painter/Designer and friend of 40-years plus Dave Dauer to the show! He was born in Brooklyn, New York, and grew up in Framingham, Massachusetts.

He fondly remembers sitting at his dining room table at his parent’s home looking out the large picture window drawing the trees. David’s neighbor, who was an artist, offered to support and guide him. This helped to ignite his artistic fire.

Dave Dauer’s parents were also key to his development and encouraged him to follow his passion. He did! Dave took art classes and, as he says, “I was fortunate to attend a high school in Framingham that offered an amazing art program.” He received a BFA in painting from Southeastern Massachusetts University (SMU), his MFA in painting from Kent State University, and later returned to SMU for continued studies in Design.

Listen in on the conversation as The Artist Index’s host, Ron Fortier, speaks with Dave Dauer and focuses in on how he’s returned to paint full time and exhibit after many years as an Art Director and Creative Director in the Publishing and Advertising industries

The whole concept of The Artists Index and the journey we are embarking on are still in the making and very organic. At this critical time in our country’s history, as we are experiencing and attempting to remain safely at home during the Covid 19 Pandemic, we will continue to podcast assisted by Skype and Zoom.
