Bio
Daniel grew up in northern Michigan, Maryland, and Florida. His father was an epidemiologist and his mother was a schoolteacher. He has two brothers—both scientists—and two adult children.
He graduated from the University of Florida with a degree in graphic design and began a long career in advertising as an art director and illustrator.
His work has been shown in many public exhibitions and private collections including The Orlando Museum of Art, Mills Gallery Orlando, SOBO Gallery, CityArts Orlando, and ArtFields Festival in South Carolina. His work was recently featured on Orlando area billboards as part of The Corridor Project, A program of Orlando’s Downtown Arts District. He recently completed work on a traffic box in downtown Orlando and is preparing for a one-person show in June 2024 at CityArts Orlando.
He gathers inspiration from the earliest days of photography to create contemporary paintings and drawings using a variety of media both traditional and digital. His most recent work has been experimenting with the area between representation and abstraction using the figure as a starting point. Dan currently divides his time between painting, design, avoiding looking at his phone and writing about himself in the third person.
