The lesson learned from his participation in sports helped him excel in other aspects of life, including graduating as valedictorian of his high school class and magma cum laude from the Columbus College of Art and Design. Most importantly, his sports background laid the foundation for his future art career.
After relocating to San Diego, Danny used his experience in sports as an endless source of inspiration. He has created many images depicting the great sports stars and scenes from all realms of the sporting world. In fact, many athletes have participated in these projects by either commissioning the pieces themselves or signing the lithographs.
Not only have these athletes supported Danny`s artwork, but they also appreciate the high quality he strives to achieve, as exemplified by Mickey Mantle`s comment, \"This is one of the best paintings I`ve seen done of me.\" Danny`s paint brush is not limited to portraiture. He is also known for lush, highly realistic views of some of the world`s great golf courses. Danny has created a style that is unique in the manner which it embodies and surpasses the true spirit of \"realism\".
