Large Image Daniel Pressley

Daniel Pressley was born in South Carolina in 1918, moved north and devoted himself to painting and wood sculpture after a prolonged illness in 1962 which rendered him unable to return to work. He spent long hours at his carvings and kept a journal that was a sketchbook, a diary, an autobiography and a philosophical treatise all in one. He participated in the Greenwich Village Outdoor Art Shows regularly, and became known around New York as a gregarious artist dedicated to his work. Pressley died in Brooklyn, New York in March of 1971.
