Outsourced Series by Dan Alva

Outsourced Series by Dan Alva

The Outsourced series is a modern reinterpretation of old master paintings using original materials and methods. The series has become Alva’s very own Masters in Art History. “It’s been in the works and under research for about three years, but this last year I really kicked it off. Aside from the painting itself, my favorite part has been these forced collaborations between dead masters that never would have happened back in those days. For example “Sleeping with the Fishes” has Da Vinci, Rembrandt and Van Gogh all in one.” – Dan Alva
