Daniel Fleres was born in 1982 in Walnut Creek, CA. As a kid, he was fascinated with saturday morning cartoons, video games, comic book super heroes and the chance to work in the fields that inspired his creativity. After high school, Daniel moved to San Diego to earn an AA in Graphic Design from Platt College. Daniel returned to the bay area after graduating to start a fine art career. The last six years, he has since exhibited and curated art shows all around the world as well as contributed art for published books. Daniel is currently working on his first toy line, “The Swanicorn” to be released later this May 2012.
