Daisy Hernandez is a multidisciplinary artist from New Jersey. She’s been painting for over 12 years, ever since discovering a love for textures and brushstrokes back in middle school. What started as a hobby quickly grew into a deep passion for visual storytelling and creative expression.

Her work blends imagination with real-world issues, especially focusing on human and animal crises happening around the world. Daisy uses painting as a way to process and bring attention to these topics, creating visuals that spark curiosity, emotion, and conversation. She believes color and canvas size aren’t just technical choices—they’re tools to express mood and energy.

To fuel her imaginative thinking, Daisy also works as an illustrator and animator. Her illustration style leans funky, quirky, and playful—filled with character design, comics, children’s book art, and wacky, offbeat animations. Whether sketching with a pencil or working digitally, she loves adding humor and whimsy into her storytelling, giving each piece a sense of fun and personality.

She works in a range of styles including impressionism, abstraction, impasto, and surrealism, but oil painting is where she feels most at home. The way oil paints can be layered, blended, and textured allows her to push the boundaries of light, depth, and emotion in her work.
