About Dana E. Myers
I’m an artist. People, animals, and life in general are my teachers.
Art was quite a love of mine as a child. Many times it served as an escape from my unhappiness during those years. When I graduated from high school, I was eager to put school behind me. It served as the source of my grief because I was constantly bullied there. I suppose at the time art pretty much went right out the window with the rest of it. So a couple decades passed and I was much happier just working and enjoying life. I have been a frontline healthcare worker for twenty years but something was missing.
One day I came across a picture in which the artist had made a drawing where each image was a reference to a particular song by the Beatles. Now let me just say, I am a biiiig U2 fan and right away I thought, What a cool idea! Someone needs to make one of these for U2! I thought, Well wait a second, I can draw. I was in advanced art back in school. I will do it, it will be so fun!... So i did! It was then that I realized how much I had been missing art from my adult life. At the risk of sounding a bit cliche.... the rest is history!

I am having the time of my life creating again now, and have been a bit floored by the positive feedback I have received. How funny it is that my favorite band in the universe, in a roundabout way, reunited me with an old love that is art.

A special and expressive piece. I wanted to create in semi-photorealism unconditional love, the bond, and the sweetness between child and animal. In Thailand the elephant is considered a "sacred" animal' and friend to the Buddhist monks who live there. I wanted to capture part of a culture that many people in the western world don't see.
