Meet Daniel Raynott

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Daniel Raynott. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

DANIEL, so great to have you with us and we want to jump right into a really important question. In recent years, it’s become so clear that we’re living through a time where so many folks are lacking self-confidence and self-esteem. So, we’d love to hear about your journey and how you developed your self-confidence and self-esteem.

At the beginning there was the passion to draw, to paint, to devote all his time, his days and sometimes his nights to it.

To discover a passion, there is undoubtedly a positive opinion of oneself, and perhaps a form of unconsciousness which means that we do not ask questions about the future of this passion.

Gradually we acquire self-confidence by succeeding in a painting that we have imagined.
And when around you you see an interest in your works, art galleries who ask you to exhibit your works, and collectors who buy your paintings to hang them in their homes, it’s a whole other adventure that begins,
You feel and see success Self-confidence is your belief in yourself and your abilities.
Existence becomes a gift.

Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?

I am an artist. I started drawing as a child, then I discovered painting and devoted my life to it. I am optimistic by nature, painting is an open book, and is a reflection of my personality, I give it sun, light and energy.
My favourite inspiration is the vibrant sunshine of California and other places to the joy of living and to the sumptuous and daring architectural villas and their swimming pools shimmering with translucent turquoise water.
Full of energy full of life.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?

First of all, the passion which gives fantastic energy, that the days are never long enough.

Then, want to learn the technique most precisely. A solid technique allows an artist to go further in his inspiration. Every day of creation is a learning experience. So many fields of inspiration

And be interested in the creations of others, particularly the new generation who always bring new things with a fresh eye.

Always believe in your future whatever the difficulties you encounter

You may or may not have a career as an artist, but always believe in your art.
You have discovered your passion for creating and this is already an invaluable opportunity!
if you really want the future will be yours

Who has been most helpful in helping you overcome challenges or build and develop the essential skills, qualities or knowledge you needed to be successful?

An artist’s life is made up of encounters, so it is better to live with people who understand you and accept your passion.
First of all, the family circle, your romantic partner can be very important. I was lucky, everyone around me encouraged me even though success was not yet there.
I then met art gallery owners who exhibited my works. They are often professionals who have a passion for art and who know how to talk with artists, because they love them, they love their talent, their originality, their diversity.
Creating in the workshop quietly while entrusting promotion and sales to galleries is an incredible opportunity.
Luck is also being able to choose with whom you want to collaborate, to share our artistic future for many years.
