“I grew up on a farm, caught crickets and bailed hay, painted with mud, dug up civil war relics, listened to midnight mockingbirds. These are the ingredients of life that have stuck with me and have built the foundation for the artwork I set forth into the world.” Dolan Geiman is a nationally recognized mixed media artist known for nostalgic, multilayered artworks inspired by vintage Americana and nature’s untamed wilderness. Born and raised in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, Dolan Geiman’s formative years were defined by outdoor adventures in his bucolic surroundings. Twenty-plus years later the flora and fauna, found curiosities, and fading Appalachian culture still define Geiman’s contemporary-folk creations. Trained by his mother, a watercolor artist, and father, a storyteller, teacher, and serviceman for the USDA Forest Service, Geiman’s mediums span painting, collage, printmaking, drawing, sculpture and assemblage. Together, Geiman’s expansive mixed media portfolio celebrates the folklore and discarded materials of the rugged American landscape.Geiman has been featured in media outlets ranging from American Craft to Cowboys & Indians with a resume that includes such companies as Dickies, New Balance, Fossil, Anthropologie, Pendleton, and the Gaylord Rockies ResortGeiman, along with wife and business-partner Ali Marie work from Englewood, CO just south of Denver.
