Biography

Danny, the son of Ginger Riley's youngest brother, only started painting after Ginger passed away, but he had observed his uncle at work and began to formulate his own style. He spent as much time as he could in Limmen Bight country. Here he discovered some unpainted canvases of his uncle's and started his own distinctive paintings. [artereal website]
