Danny Roberts

Danny Roberts is one of my favorite artists.   I found him a few months ago, while reading a room makeover article in Teen Vogue, and I fell in love with his work.
One of his pieces for Forever 21
Here's a little background on him.  He began drawing as a child. When he was 13, he started my own clothing company.  He studied Photography at Cal Poly SLO, and then later studied Fashion Design at the Academy of Art in San Francisco. He has  collaborated with Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku Lovers, Forever21, Heutchy Shoes, Lancome, and Sundance Channel's Full Frontal Fashion.  His artwork was on the cover of  The Sunday Time Magazine (London), and he has been featured in Vogue Nippon, Vogue Spain, Elle, Womens Wear Daily, Vogue Brazil, and Modern Luxury.  He wrote a bedtime story for a friend, and has decided to get it published so he can put some of his illustrations in it.   Sophie Ward and he got together and  putting together a 350 page inspiration book.
He and his brother run a blog that they frequently update with pictures thay take from fashion shows, thier artwork, and news related to them. To buy his art work you can go to his etsy store, his painting and drawings are between $20-$100.  There is also a facebook fansite dedicated to his work.
