In his works, Daniel Prapone lets pastel colored grounds merge and dampens abstract gestures to a quiet rhythm.
Calmness, concentration and meditation overcomes the viewer, while the subtle colors glow suggestively.

A kind of meditative icon is created, in which the abstract-expressive moment is inherent.
His works are often interpreted as abbreviations or details of formerly seen forms, which he redeemed from their very own context and uses autonomously.

The paintings by Daniel Prapone are located in many private collections and museums - some of which include the Conrad Museum in Washington.
