Native Californian, Dana Price, grew up in Los Angeles in a family where artistic and creative expression were encouraged at an early age. Her formal training began in music and included piano, violin, guitar and voice. Dana turned to the visual arts in the mid 80’s while living in Oakland where she raised her family and taught art to children in the Oakland Public Schools and privately in her home for over ten years. Her fabric dolls, hand painted quilts and fabric collages were exhibited at the Oakland Museum, the Festival of the Lake, the SF Mission Cultural Center , the San Francisco Zoo, and the Ryman Arts Foundation in Los Angeles. Other projects included decorative furniture painting and costume and prop design for Bay Area dance and theatre groups.

Her current passion is multi-medium mosaic inspired by her life on a houseboat in Sausalito and her many trips to Mendocino where she collects glass and shells weathered, broken down and made smooth by the strong tides and currents of the ocean. Her studio is located in a converted 1970 Crown school bus right on the waterfront. She has over 30 works on display at her houseboat. These include a bird bath, a patio table, mirrors, a trellis at her entrance gate, an abalone duck, and many mosaics depicting the bird and sea life of the areas where she lives and travels.
