Dale is a self-taught artist whose interest in astronomy can be traced back
to his early childhood. His professional career as a space artist was born
while he was an observatory director at the Henry Grieb Observatory located
in the Sierra Nevada mountains. He used to sketch objects with a pencil
after looking through the eye piece, and later moved on to pastels and
eventually the airbrush. His works have sold throughout Northern
California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Hong Kong and Texas. He now lives in
Sacramento, California. In addition to extensive exhibitions, he has also
given lectures about space and space art for numerous science centers,
observatories and other space-related organizations.
