Danny Gordon

About the Artist:


Danny Gordon is a self-taught artist/illustrator who lives in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma with his wife Sandra and Ben, their amazingly well-mannered cat.

When he is not illustrating children's books, or working on his newest doggie creation in his studio, he maintains a busy schedule visiting schools and Public Libraries.

"I enjoy entertaining and inspiring people with my art, especially children."

"Danny's Doggies," his newest and most successful artistic achievement began in September of 2003, when his beloved wife suggested that he spruce up his company image by designing a colorful character. Thus Sheriff Dan Ward was created. She then suggested designing a side-kick for Sheriff Ward. After a few failed attempts, Tar the Basset Hound was created. Danny has since illustrated over 200 dog and cat caricatures which have been sold to thousands of happy customers across the nation!
