ABOUT THE ARTIST

Hello, animal and nature lovers! I'm Daniel Trelenberg, an artist based in Austin Texas. I create hieroglyphic textural paintings. My art is rooted in my deep respect for nature and animals. I utilize texture, warm earth tones, and bold contrasts to give my paintings a sculptural and dynamic feel.

A SUSTAINABLE APPROACH

Driven by a passion for conservation, my art seeks to preserve the natural world through mindful techniques and materials. I use earth and clay in my paintings. When creating my art, I repurpose the excess textured paste by applying it to a second painting. I also try to repurpose all my canvases or stretch my own. Through my artwork, you can enjoy the deeper message of environmental stewardship, respect for nature, and a calming energy.

OUTSIDE OF THE STUDIO

When I'm not painting in my studio, you'll often find me appreciating life's simple pleasures– hiking the Green Belt trail, paddle boarding Lady Bird Lake, or taking a dip at Barton Springs. 

In addition to my outdoor endeavors, I enjoy the company of my cat Orianna. Together we enjoy eating seafood, snuggling while watching a movie, or soaking up the sun outside in the garden.

I often share behind-the-scenes glimpses into life as an artist through my weekly email updates. If you’d like to stay in the know and gain early access to collection drops, be sure to sign up using the form below.
