The path towards becoming an artist varies from one individual to another. For the majority, it starts from an early age. Most would have had their first taste of making art through formal education such as art classes and that becomes the starting point for many. For Seattle-born artist Danny Minnick, drawing is second nature and he could easily sketch out his favourite cartoon characters when he was only in third grade.

He uses an array of art materials like oils, acrylics, oil sticks, Krinks, sharpies and spray paint to create his body of work. Eventually, he held his first show titled “17 pieces” and the rest is history. Minnick’s artworks can be described as a medley of colours, thick paint, highly pigmented, fragments, splinters, brush and splatter work. Oftentimes, art connoisseurs and collectors would mention Keith Haring, Willem de Kooning and Jean-Michel Basquiat when commenting on his art.

A common motif that is seen throughout Minnick’s works is the trademark stick-like figures, often with a “+” symbol around the pelvis area. Along with that, the colours he chose are also vibrant. Perhaps it is his multi-hyphenate professions, he approaches his works with little ego and a childlike sense of wonder and curiosity. The whimsical nature of Minnick comes through quite effortlessly and one can feel and see it in the work.
