Visual Artist Freelance Biography for
Dale E. McFarland
1980-2009
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. Attending the Ivy School of Art in Pittsburgh Pa, he studied Advertising Design, and graduated with an Associate’s Degree in 1980.
Dale’s freelance art career spans almost 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 125 art students in Western Pa. and Eastern Oh. The students ranged from the ages eight to adults. The students learned the art of cartooning along with other Visual Arts and crafts. Many of his Visual Art students are now working as fulltime Visual Artist in various Visual Art fields. From time to time Dale's cartoon work could be found in his home town newspaper The Sharon Herald. Dale has also self published two books with his cartoon drawings one in the mid 1980's and the other in the early 1990's. His cartoon color concept of learning basic colors, shapes, numbers, and counting for Pre-K and K was used in Sharon city schools for over twenty years. His 'Cartoon Talks' have put smiles on faces of all ages as he shares his special talent. Speaking to just a few kids or a few hundred kids with a one hour program the kids always receive a message about hope in reaching ones dreams.
Presently Dale is using drawing pencils or color pencils on color drawing papers; 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 minds 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.
