Daniel Herrera is a freelance illustrator based in Brooklyn, NY.
Born and raised in Odessa, Texas, Daniel traveled the U.S. and Mexico as a major league baseball pitcher for teams including the New York Mets and Cincinatti Reds before planting roots in New York City.
Known for his screwball, he brings a similarly clever sensibility to his illustration work, merging an offbeat aesthetic, obsession with detail, and an ever-present playfulness.
With characters at the center of his work, Daniel draws on a wide spectrum of influences, from the wacked-out worlds of 1990’s sports t-shirt graphics and early underground comics, to more classical forms of portraiture and realism.
Daniel has created work for Creem Magazine and the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame, among others, and most recently, his work is featured in the collection of the Baseball Hall of Fame.
