Arkelion

My name is Daniel, and I have been drawing since I was old enough to hold a pencil. Most of my life I simply enjoyed sketching and doodlez until around 2005 I started taking art to a more serious level.
I had made up my mind that I wanted to be a tattoo artist, and started building a portfolio. This was the first time that I began to use color in my pictures, which were previously always regular pencil.
After a year or so of working in a shop I decide that the tattoo world wasn't for me, and though the artwork is amazing, I simply found that it wasn't what I was looking for.
Over the years I have taken what I learned in the tat shops, and brought that into my work and created a style of coloring that I really enjoy.
Although it was not my career of choice, I really learned alot and enjoyed my time in the tat shops. I'm proud to say that my work is tattoo enthused.
With my recent travels, and new friends that I have been exposed to, I am now taking my artwork into a new direction....

One thing I always enjoy is speaking to other artists, since there is such a diversity with us. One thing I always find is we have some obstacle with our work and ourselves. I enjoy discussing them with others and knowing that we all have them, and its normal. It is something we must overcome countless times to get to our goal we have set in mind.
