Hi there! I’m Danielle M. Chery, a self-taught artist and the founder of DMC Original Art, an award-winning home decor business based in Brooklyn, NY. What started as a hobby in 2012 grew into a passion that inspired me to launch my business in 2021.
I specialize in creating functional abstract art for both residential and commercial spaces, drawing inspiration from the vibrant and dynamic flow of nature. Alongside my art, I’m also a published author with a deep love for travel. I’ve had the privilege of exploring over 60 international cities, and my experiences abroad continually inspire my creativity. I often live by the motto, “Happy is the girl who travels the world.”
Whether I’m walking through the streets of Brooklyn or discovering new sights overseas, these experiences influence my work. I’m also passionate about teaching and enjoy leading workshops where I guide participants of all ages in the meditative process of creating fluid art.
My work has been featured in national publications like Yoga Journal, NY Amsterdam News, and the LA Sentinel. In 2024, I graduated from the Goldman Sachs One Million Black Women: Black in Business program.
My diverse collection includes everything from colorful coasters and elegant serving trays to tables and wall art. I use a fluid art technique that combines moving meditation and a unique form of breathwork to craft marble-like designs on wood and ceramic with acrylic paints and epoxy resin. My mission is to convey peace and freedom through my abstract creations, which have been showcased in stores like West Elm, H&M, and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Shop.
On this website, you can browse and purchase unique, collectible items, learn about the services I offer, read blog posts about my creative process, and explore special projects featured on the Press page—like "Underwater Tune," a painted piano.
Join the DMC Original Art family and adorn your home with functional resin art, deeply influenced by the colorful rhythms of nature.
