My Bio
Deviant Bio

I am Daniel Pitner and I've been a professional graphic artist for over 18 years.


I think of myself most often as a puzzle solver. My greatest strengths lie in my ability to take content and arrange it aesthetically. Since I came online around 3-years-old'ish, drawing has been my first love and passion. Around 20-years-old, I focused this into a career: graphic design.


Photoshop and I have been together since it was delivered on multiple floppies and took days to install. I consider myself an expert at it. From the very first class I took at The Art Institute of Dallas back in 2000, I was in love. Literally in love with a program. Combine this with a Wacom tablet of some kind, and Photoshop and I are suddenly One; blurring the lines between man and machine.


Okay, now you tell me your story.

I am the echo of my doing. When there is only doing and no echo There is no me. When there is ceaseless echo There is too much me. Is doing and not knowing I am doing it Worth doing at all? Is hearing nothing but the echo of doing Worth doing at all. When I speak It is silent. When I am silent It speaks. I am the reflection on the glass When looking at the world Through the window. When I see the world I don't see me. And when I see me I don't see the world. When I see I see it. When it sees It sees me.

The Last Temptation of the Buddha

0 min read
​This is my favorite depiction and pose of the Buddha. The story surrounding it is akin to Christ's temptation in the wilderness by Satan. Swap Siddhartha Gautama for Jesus ​and Mara for Satan and it's basically the same'ish story with a very important difference. In the biblical story, Jesus is tempted for forty days and nights by the most evil being in existence; doing its damnedest to convince Jesus to renounce his throne and bow down to Satan and all the world will be his. Juxtaposed to the Buddha story we have Siddhartha – a prince himself like Jesus – sitting under a tree meditating, with Mara – a 'demon
