Joseph Patric Daniels

Artist Author Teacher

I’ve made a living as fine artist and illustrator based in NYC for over 20 years, exhibited internationally and won awards and grants for my paintings. I studied Fine Art at "The School of Visual Arts" among other institutions, where earned a Masters degree. After completing my education, I apprenticed for artists like Tom Weselmann, (now considered one of the greatest pop artists who ever lived) Marjorie Stryder, and Kevin Barrett, Then taught art in the schools I attended. Since then, I’ve gone on to show my own paintings in prestigious institutions from New York to Los Angeles like Joseph Nahmad Gallery, to participating in international shows like Art Basel. 

I took all of those years of training and put them into my courses, so you can receive the education I had at a price anyone can afford. I want to give you the tools to have complete creative freedom to paint and express yourself, without giving up from frustration like so many before. What you learn in my courses can be applied to every painting style, not just realism. The techniques, palettes, brushes, color theories, etc are universal and can be applied to achieve whatever style you desire- and I urge you to find your own!
