Dale
Nigel Goble was born in Edmonton, Alberta in the Spring of
1972 and has loved drawing and painting since a very young
age. With a continuing drive and passion to excel in commercial
and fine art, Dale has always found himself with a deep desire
to prosper with his own creative vision allowing himself greater
room for creative self expression.
After winning the prestigious Bank of America Achievement
Award for excellence in Art and Design at the young age of
18, and a fortunate lunch with the late Henry Geldzahler arranged
by friends Gordon Johnston and Raine Dowell , Goble was more
and more convinced that a successful life in art was very
much a possibility and set out to develop and refine his talent.
The artwork and illustration of dng has been featured in numerous
magazines, newspapers, television, print and digital media
both locally and internationally. dng has worked on both private
and commercial projects with clients such as, bacardi, heineken
music, labatts, colgate, london drugs, hayes, flosport, aritzia, and many others.
His artwork appears in private collections internationally
and corporate collections across Western Canada, as well as the Children's museum of Manhattan and the White House in Washington, DC.
dng's personal style is emerging through the desire to find
and create beauty and meaning in the commonplace, in the single
object and symbolic storytelling, creating a majority of the
works combining traditional mediums with new production methods.
"To create a thing of beauty, to inspire and remind oneself
and others that beauty is is all around us if only we learn
to see."
