Dale was born and raised in Minnesota from a working class family with six brothers and one sister. He was the first of his family to go on to college. He started his secondary education at North Hennepin College in 1969. He quickly became enthralled with the Art department and decided that he wanted to become (with some misgivings from his family) an artist. He moved onto St. Cloud State University in central Minnesota studying with a second generation Abstract Expressionist, David Brown, where he received his bachelor’s and master degree’s in Art, in Painting and Drawing with High Honors.
