D. R. Haigler

D. R. Haigler (b. 1987, Manchester, NH) has collected several interests in search of his own enjoyment and self-expression throughout his life. He tried his hand at writing and photography, but what truly grabbed his heart was painting. Self-taught in his home city of Manchester, New Hampshire, he went through trial and error with oil and acrylic. In the end he chose acrylic as his primary medium. His topic of choice is usually faces and figures, but he doesn’t mind painting still life, nature, or even abstract every now and then. With love and encouragement from the community, as well as family and friends, he continues to build confidence, hone his skills, and grow as an artist.
