He paints possibility and exploration, his mixed media creations set an experiential platform. Born out of life at its fullest, his color immersions and compilations touch chance and dance with possibility. Danny sees the world and its beings as boundless and his pieces speak to the infinite possibilities in all that is and could be.
Lopes is inspired by the works of legendary icons Pollack, Dali and his cousin, Portuguese surreal artist, Dina Lopes. The streets of New York, Miami, LA and Lisbon often contribute to Danny's inspiration and creations for his pieces, which each carry their own unique tone. The stories of his art are subjective and ever changing, innovating from a place of pride and promise. Having lived his dreams and enduring melee as an artist, entertainer, visionary and entrepreneur, his collective works are the stuff of stars. They are ageless, timeless and immutable, much like Danny himself.
