Sobre el Artista

As a New York native, I’ve been surrounded by art and culture my entire life. Growing up in Brooklyn I wasn’t into sports but I did spend a lot of time at the Brooklyn Museum where I took art classes from elementary school through High School. This early exposure to the arts had a huge influence on me and helped shape my passion for creating throughout my life. Over the years I’ve studied at the Art Students League, the New York Academy of Art and attended many life drawing sessions at Spring Studio. I also worked for decades in the graphic design business where I was fortunate enough to work with some of the most talented and accomplished designers in the industry. This experience has greatly influenced my own artistic style and approach. In my art, I strive to combine simple graphic elements, realistic images and symbols, traditional techniques and computer graphics to create original and imaginative images that capture universal emotions and promote positivity and connection. My art is easy to understand. There’s nothing esoteric, complicated or confusing about it. I simply try to create interesting, captivating, compelling images that bring inspiration and hope to those who experience them. www.colorful.nyc @danjaynyc instagram
