Artist Biography

Danny Day

It is often said that involvement in sports is good preparation for life: supplying the participants with discipline, skills and self confidence. An example of this theory is California artist Danny Day. Danny, originally from Marion, Ohio, was a high school athlete who excelled at a variety of sports. He was a standout on the football gridiron and won the state pole vaulting championship. The lessons learned from his participation in sports helped him excel in other aspects of life, including graduating as valedictorian of his high school class and magna 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 art, prints and posters depicting the great sports stars and scenes from all realms of the sporting world. 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.

In a departure from the sports spectrum, Danny recently was inspired to create two extraordinary pieces. "Daddy's Girl,” a delicate and moving tribute to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall, has been awarded excellence in craftsmanship and creativity. This is truly one of Danny's most heartfelt pieces. In addition, Danny used his vivid imagination and creativity to complete "2 P.M. Tombstone,” a painting depicting the events leading up to the infamous Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. Both these art prints and posters are the first in trilogies and promise to be talked about for many years to come.

Most of Danny's art, prints and posters sell within the first few months, or prior to completion, as the majority of his art is either commissioned or in high demand. A full size painting can take from four to six weeks to complete, thus making his originals very scarce. He uses the traditional "master's technique” of oil painting to create detail oriented works which require a tremendous amount of research and accuracy. Danny has created a style that is unique in the manner in which it embodies and surpasses the true spirit of "realism.”
