Something about Dan...

Something about Dan ... As an artist and photographer living in San Diego, California, I enjoy using digital "alchemy" to enhance and distinguish my work. .Artistic ideas begin as thoughts of what can be, not what should be. .And as I work, the boundaries between reality and fantasy are crossed and crisscrossed until they blur beyond recognition. For me, artistic techniques are insignificant compared to the final result. .Was something created photographically, with brush-strokes, digitally, all three, or none of the above? .It shouldn't matter, because in the end only the way art makes us feel is important. .Hopefully, I can make you feel something to remember. My persistent goal is to be ever evolving, avoiding a signature style that is easily recognizable. .For this reason I've adopted my artist's name "Cymarron" from the Spanish word "cimarrón." .Translated, this word means "wild and untamed," ingredients creativity must have in order to stay fresh, alive, and unpredictable. . You see, I've found the rush of creating art is in the thrill of discovery and experimentation. .And I plan to continue to surprise myself, and you, with how each idea ends.
