"Dan Gribben is an artist, which has always been true. He expresses himself through many avenues including painting, skateboarding, filmmaking and he is also a tattoo artist. He grew up in Scotia, NY which he quickly realized that mediocrity was just not for him.
Dan's ambition and desire to follow his dreams and to not settle for anything less and to create his own happiness is a special trait that few have. He has the ability to drop the "safe" lifestyle in favor of something more and that is incredibly inspiring.
Dan loves to help people and to inspire others that are around him. He has always been a leader and it seems that everywhere he goes, people seem to gravitate to him and feed off of Dan's positive and motivating energy. Dan lives his life out of love and nothing else. His tenacity to not only start a big project, but to finish the project with such focus and commitment is what separates him as an artist and as a person.
Dan is willing to take on huge RISK and isn't afraid of the trials and tribulations that life throws at him in order to achieve his goals. Dan has always been a dreamer and a doer. He hasn't lost sight of all the things he would say he would do as a kid "when he grows up". Many people lose sight of who they really are and they lose sight of their goals and they trade those things in for a good, steady and most of all SAFE job.
Dan is many things but above all else, he is an artist. An artist and a creator of his own happiness."
