Kia Ora,

Daniel Ido is my name. Based in Auckland, New Zealand.

With upwards of 5 years freelance experience,3 years in education and an NGO I have accumulated an array of experience and skills in the areas of marketing, advertisement, publication in both print and web; within studios and organisations.

As an multi-disciplinary creative, my core skills comprise of Illustration, with Graphic Design & Photography. Though a broad skill set, with varying degrees of experience, illustration is the core direction that ties everything together.

My style focuses on an eastern-surrealism creating an asian-centric style art with ties of his work from his western identity.

Have questions? Curious about my process? Or just want a quote for a project, let me know.

Cheers,
Daniel
