Danielle Weber (
@daniellesartworkofficial
) is an incredible Australian artist based here in Melbourne, Victoria. Her passion and love for painting is highlighted by her distinct portraits and sheer quality of work. Danielle’s work has extended to include original pieces for a number of high profile clients including Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
It was Melbourne I Love You Founder Chris Cincotta, that first introduced me to Danielle’s work, and I thank him for the exceptional suggestion. Danielle is one of the most hard working artists I’ve come across, and one that truly has talent. She’s the type of artist that helps me appreciate the art form, by focusing on the individual beauty in each piece of work - whether a mural or portrait. I’ve often struggled at art galleries, particularly when they have interpretive modern art that honestly makes me wonder why it’s there.
Danielle’s work is so innate and I think she opens up the door for many to appreciate this world.
This was a great chat, in a completely new area for me - where we covered:
Deadlifting and training
Early interests
Her mother’s encouragement
Preferred discipline and process
Conor McGregor & The Rock
Starting her business, work ethic, and anxiety
Her early drawings and influences
Ridiculous requests and difficult clients
Mistakes & myths of becoming an artist
