Danny Neece

Danny Neece is an illustrator living and working in Oakland, CA. Most of Danny’s inspiration is a manifestation of observation, listening, and breathing. If he was asked to explain where his inspiration comes from, his response would be “The Ocean”. Danny does like to paint the ocean, and the many creatures that occupy it. He really is just trying to be in tune as much as possible to nature. The modern world can move too fast for him. You can also find Danny teaching drawing and painting courses at the Berkeley Art Studio. Learn more at www.dannyneece.com and on Instagram @dannyjackneece.
