JEROD DAVIES aka DTOX is a multifaceted self-taught artist raised in Dallas, Texas by way of Grand Rapids, Michigan. Coming from a long line of visual artists in his immediate family Jerod moves comfortably between styles and excels naturally at his use of color and ornate application. His passionate approach at creating art is fueled by a deeply rooted attraction for unconventional beauty. Heavily influenced by nature, his style is virtually impossible to categorize yet easy to describe, bold portraits, believable and surreal, direct yet ornate with a vibrant sarcasm. With a unique gift for marrying technology driven themes with old world grace his works are a delight to behold yet easy to embrace. Jerod's intimate grasp of technology and nature pushes his work forward year after year. As a multifaceted artist with several distinct styles, he is known for thought-provoking works on canvas, larger-than-life colorful murals, intricate collage works, surreal body painting, up-cycled artistic fashion, live scribing, performance painting, and his overall speed and precision while creating.
