Nate Daniels was born and raised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Boonridge, North Carolina in the 1970's. Being part of a family that admired art and loved attending art shows, Daniels was inspired by the age of seven to become an artist himself upon the discovery of his grandparents' postcard collection depicting famous works of art.

By the age of 20, Nate Daniels was studying illustration at the Atlanta College of Art, and he has continued creating ever since. Having gained a nation-wide following for meticulous artwork that incorporates color, detail and the suggestion of texture, Daniels has recently gained an international fan base as well.
