Artist Statement
Daniel's work consists of acrylic and pastel paintings, which are, in style, very much influenced by the neo-expressionism movement and street art. He also explores the digital world, using, mostly, photographs of his abstract paintings as a starting point for his digital and mixed media works. The beautiful nature of women acts as a core inspiration to Daniel, who includes strong, striking figures, with particular focus to their faces. Daniel loves to explore, with a degree of uncertainty. He visualizes an idea and uses a flow of movements in order to achieve the effect he’s looking for meaning he is never sure how it is going to end. This combined with a range of different colours and textures results in vibrant and intriguing end pieces.
