Brooklyn based fine artist Daniel Maidman’s drawings and paintings have been featured in The Huffington Post, and Forbes, and exhibited in the permanent collections of the Library of Congress, the New Britain Museum of American Art, the Wausau Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Long Beach Museum of Art.
Daniel's Instagram following at the time of writing this is over 124,000 people and it's well deserved. His mostly monochromatic figurative drawings of the human form are captivating and strike a delicate balance between highly labored renderings and minimalist linework.
In this episode, Daniel talks about what life is like as a working artist. We also talk about his signature style and how his love of previous generations of artists before him influenced his work.
We also got into the discipline of being a professional artist and the right and left brain connection of the entrepreneurial side of being an artist.
We even had a plot twist later in the episode when we learn that Daniel's work is heading to the moon. Like, literally...the Moon.
