ABOUT DAN

CAT LOVER. AVID DOODLER. QUEER ARTIST.

Dan grew up in the small town of Watkinsville, GA. From the moment they picked up their first crayon, they knew they loved to create and draw. Inspired by childhood cartoons, Tim Burton, and fantasy & adventure RPGs, they spent their adolescent years creating a slue of Original Characters and fanart for their favorite games and comics.

​

Since 2003, Dan has worked on developing their pet project: ODyssey -- a comic adventure featuring an alternate universe that follows a Catgon (a bipedal cat-like alien) named Magic and her broody human friend, Manner. ODyssey has yet to debut, but Dan is working hard to make this happen soon!

Dan's go-to mediums are ink, watercolor -- with an infinite love of marker as well. Favorite subjects include landscapes, animals, and cartoon characters of all varieties.

Dan had spent most of their life in Athens, GA, when in 2021 they relocated to Frederick, MD. They happily live with their wife, Paige (pictured left), and their 2 kitties: Demi & Zuko (whom you can see paintings of in the Pet Portraits section).
