Dan Goad was born in Los Angeles, California in 1952. He is a self taught naturalist and artist who has been a close and fascinated
student of ornithology and other wildlife since childhood. He calls birds "Nature's most eloquent expression" and his renderings
are reminiscent of the orient, utilizing brilliant and unusual color combinations, fine draftsmanship, and a stylized flatness in his
work. Represented throughout the United States and fifteen foreign countries his prints, posters, and original paintings have a
universal appeal. In 1986, He was commissioned by the First Lady Lady Nancy Reagan and the White house, along with celebrated
American artists Andy Warhol and Jasper Johns, to paint a wooden Easter egg for the annual White House Easter Egg Hunt. It is
now part of the permanent display in the Smithsonian Institution.
