ABOUT

Dan Schubarth performing on guitar at the Circle Bar in New Orleans

Welcome to my website.  This is a place to showcase my artistic and musical endeavors.

ART: There are several different directions that I follow with my art.  Some themes I like to utilize are the nature of the universe, self-exploration, creating personal systems of form/composition, and multiple layers of meaning. These days I mostly work in pen and ink.

MUSIC: With my music I’m mostly trying to create sounds that I want to hear, and that often means loud guitars hehe. My main musical endeavor is The Red Book, a psych-prog-space rock studio project. Side projects are Elk and Their Ilk, which is solo experimental guitar music, and Spshl Snwflk, a punk inspired collaboration with vocalist Jake Silvas.

PHOTOGRAPHY: My photography is mostly centered along the themes of urban decay, signage, travel, nature and landscapes, and interesting stuff that catches my eye.  I tend to avoid including people/portraits in my photos. I do not have much photography on this website anymore but you can view a few of the tens of thousands of photos I have taken on my flickr page.

I’ve performed in numerous musical groups, bands, and ensembles over the years, and have occasionally shown my art in various venues.

Thanks for visiting.
