Daniel derives a lot of inspiration from nature and more specifically birds. He sees birds as free spirits; not bound by the rules of gravity. This speaks to him in a number of ways but mostly frees his mind of personal inhibitions. He lets go of what logic or reason allows and lets the reality of his imagination come to life. Like a bird disregarding the pull of gravity and soaring into the wind. His most recent paintings depict color dripping from his subjects in order to represent how he pours himself into my artwork. He likes to think that a part of him lives in each of his paintings through this transfusion of energy.
