Danny Ayala Sold at Auction Prices

Hola my name is Danny Ayala. I'm a visual artist ,born and raised in Mexico City.

I am an Artist whose inspiration is mainly Nature, It's the main source of energy in the works that I do . Nature comes in many forms,from the vegetables and flowers in my garden,to the people that walk the streets of the city. In my work, I find myself interwined with. My work is a humble attempt to mix this wisdom,truth, both light and dark,and human expresion and translate it onto a canvas. Therein lays the essence of my work.

The materials that I use in my artwork are as diverse as the stories that I draw from. My art consist of reclaimed materials,such as wood or metal from construction sites that I work on when not painting,fresh canvas,paint and other new materials. Often times I use objects that have seemingly have nothing to do with the work itself,but they have a history,making a different puzzle for each viewer.

It is thanks to the freedom I have found in using many kinds of medium,and through my own and shared experiences,which allows me to paint different styles of Art. The form my art takes can range from painting on a simple coin to painting murals in the Mission District in SF. My form of expression draws from realms of art,from surrealism to abstract, which has helped to form what I consider my own style : "Painting as a Child".
