My name is Daniela Salgado, and I was born in Bogota, Colombia. My journey with art began when I first held a crayon at the age of 3, and ever since, creativity has been at the core of my being. At 17, I moved to the United States to further my education and earned my bachelor's degree from the College of Charleston.

Art, for me, is a language beyond words, it is a powerful force that has helped me navigate the complexities of life. I have faced many challenges, and art has been my anchor, holding me together when nothing else could. Each piece I create, whether it be drawing, painting, or sculpture, reflects a part of my personal story. Art has not only transformed my life, but it has also become my way of transforming the world around me, one piece at a time.

To date, I have created over 1,000 artworks, each one a reflection of my story, moments of joy, struggle, growth, and healing. In my highest highs and lowest lows, art has been the one thing no one could take away from me. It’s my way of expressing gratitude for the lessons life has taught me and embracing the beauty in every experience. Art has guided me toward self-acceptance, self-love, and inner happiness, and through my work, I hope to inspire others to discover their own sense of peace and love within themselves.
