Artist of the day, September 14, 2020: Danny Heller, an American artist (#1093)

 Danny Heller (1982) Is an American artist born in Northridge, CA in 1982. Growing up in the San Fernando Valley, he was able to carefully study the golden landscape of Los Angeles which would shape his later body of work. For formal art instruction, Danny left the Valley for the College of Creative Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

While studying under landscape painter Hank Pitcher, Danny earned a B.A. in art with an emphasis in painting. After formative years spent capturing Santa Barbara’s surf landscapes, his attention turned toward retro iconography characteristic of mid-century Los Angeles. Having set up his studio in the Coachella Valley, he now concentrates on chronicling Modern American imagery, specifically focusing on the architecture, design, and car culture found throughout the nation.

Danny Heller's paintings have been exhibited in solo and group shows throughout the world, from Paris to Los Angeles, and most recently in Madrid. His work can be found in numerous private collections and Museum institutions worldwide.
