Customer Review

Art is a discipline that can be taught. In fact, I believe that anyone can become a great artist! My philosophy is quiet simple: Teach the fundamentals of art, enjoy the creative process and help students develop artistic competence.

"One of the beauties of Daniel's mentoring and critique style is his ability to breakdown complex ideas into a simple process, so one is able to do art with conviction and purpose. I received valuable lessons and exercise that helped to grow as an artist!

“My goal as a teacher is to untapped your potential as an artist and to give you the tools to help you solve artistic challenges!
