Visual Artist / Sports Artist Biography for
Dale E. McFarland
1980-2010


Dale McFarland specializes in the beautiful and striking effects with his graphite portrait drawings. His realistic detailed illustrations depicting sports and non sports portrait art are enjoyed by collectors of all ages worldwide. He is a "RED" ribbon winning artist at “THE GREAT STONEBORO FAIR” 2009 for his #58 Jack Lambert pencil drawing. As a young artist Dale studied the art of cartoon drawing. His cartoon studies taught him the importance of the line in a drawing. Dale is a 1977 graduate of Sharon Senior High School Sharon Pa. Attending Ivy School of Art in Pittsburgh Pa; he studied Advertising Design, and graduated with an Associate’s Degree in 1980.

Dale’s started drawing at the age of five years old; his freelance visual art career spans thirty years. Most of that time has been spend working with young artist to help their Visual Art dreams become a way of life. At one time Dale was working with over 200 Visual Art Students in Western Pa. His Visual art classes were held at the Valley Arts Guild, Hoyt Institute of Art, and the F.H. Buhl Club. His cartoon character (The Color Friends) have help teach kids colors, shapes, numbers, and counting for over twenty years in Sharon city schools. In 2010 Dale plans to republish his pre-k book under the business name of Tiger Paws Publishing. You can see both FREE pre-K books on this website. BOOKMARK the pages and have the kids learn from them every day, they will smile for you.

Presently Dale is using drawing pencils or color pencils on color drawing papers or Bristol board for his sport portrait art. Dale creates depth and movement through the use of perspective, rich tones and strong drawing techniques with added touches that only a cartoonist could know. He begins with research and photograph studies of his subject(s). Next he explores various creative approaches with a series of how to notes in his mind’s eye and on paper. These notes are refined and ultimately lead to a final line-composition (RED LINE DARAWING). Using an HB, 2B, and B drawing pencil the final rendering begins. Each subject can require 25 to 100 hours or more to complete a large 11”x14” pencil drawing. Dale draws his inspiration from a life-long passion for visual art and sports. When he is not at his drawing board Dale enjoys River Fishing, Par-3 Golf, working on his home, and vintage Aurora monster model building. Each monster model takes 25-35 hours; Dale has collected Aurora Monster models for over twenty five years. Check out his Aurora monster model, and Polar Lights model collection on this site. Each monster model is displayed in Dale’s home office.
