Hi!!! There are a lot of new people following me here and I thought I'd reintroduce myself!

My name is Danny and I'm an illustrator mostly for Magic: The Gathering, Tarot stuff and publishing projects. I love nature and vibrant colors and characters, but mostly just good stories are my jam.

😂 easily one of the most cursed meals I've ever had, haha. And it was completely unpreventable too -- there was absolutely no reason to expect that was going to happen. I think the entire experience was an act of god to humble us all

Cover for Celine Leonora's "A Lesson in Murder," published by Arena-Verlag. This was my first time working with a German publishing company and they were so polite, and efficient, and respectful 🥲 13/10 client.

Illustrated cover of a blonde girl in a plaid school uniform looking out from a gothic window surrounded by fall ivy foliage. Reflected in the squares of the window are two boys faces, one blonde, one black haired with glasses.

still recovering and reflecting after a truly wonderful MagicCon. I am so grateful to all the people who came to my booth and bought my work and had me sign many many Into the Flood Maws, and to all my fellow artists who made me feel welcome and like I belonged. I love making art for this game!

these books were my absolute obsession for a pretty significant portion of my pre-teenage years. What a dream job! I love what you did with them!! Agh!!

Danny Schwartz 🔜 Illuxcon Showcase @dannyschwartzart.bsky.social · 24d

Danny Schwartz 🔜 Illuxcon Showcase @dannyschwartzart.bsky.social · Sep 12

Just a lil' guy.

Photo: A close-up of a hand holding a small grey sculpture. There are some sculpting tools out of focus in the background. The sculpture is of a little creature with leaves growing from its head.

Honestly I think at this point you aren’t actually wearing a hat and it’s just your head has a brim. Totally normal. You are good and excluded from this callout

Yes!!! Committing to a hat means committing to the hat hair that exists under the hat! When I am president/ god-emperor this is a day one sign it with a crowd of hatless people smiling behind me kinda thing, I’m very sorry
