Daniel DeNapoli, born in the Bronx, New York City. A Picasso print “The Actor”inspired him as a child.
At 18 he won the prestigious “Alexander Medal”, along with a fine Arts Diploma and a partial scholarship.
He attended The School of Visual Arts, N.Y.C., earned a BFA. He also studied at The Arts Students League
of New York City with such renown artists as Anita Steckell, Ephrain Rubinstein, Jack Aragasso.
Daniel won many competitions in Europe and the U.S.A. The Kean Masson Gallery on 57th Street exhibited
his paintings for years.

International art / film critic, Joseph Courevele, wrote, “Daniel’s paintings are like a pop hit; you can’t get that painting image out of your mind; and when you least expect it... it surfaces to dance again year after year”.
Steven Pressfield writer of “The War of Art, Winning of "Inner Creative Battle”, says ” Daniel has a burning
passion for his Art, a fearless artist of our time... a true warrior... not afraid to paint what his heart feels and his eyes see.. the Van Gogh of our time... he walks with their spirit and paints with the same determination and passion”.

Daniel's present work is derived from living in New York City and traveling around the world in search of
his next new canvas and rare vision to express. He believes art can change the “Human Condition” and the consciousness of all humans. Daniel believes all art is a labor of love... and believes we are all a work in progress.
