Danny Quirk, graphic art expert, the recent Pratt Institute graduate, 
got inspiration for his work from the recent creation of his girlfriend’s macabre Halloween costume. He has found found a way to use liquid latex and Sharpie markers to create his Painting. His work, though can play havoc on fainthearted.
Elaborately exposing life-like muscles and ligaments across an uncut pallet
of human skin, artist Danny Quirk's recreation of the human body opened up reveals beauty to be more than skin deep. His work magically consists of a thin layer of the stretchy liquid over his models and crafted work over their body. His detailed work amazingly promises no pain despite the perceived exposure of their spines, jaws, arteries and other anatomical pieces. When it's finished, the designs simply peel off.
Speaking to the Huffington Post, Quirk said his art is 'not intended to be morbid,' but is 'about self-exploration and aesthetic education.'
He later decorated his own hand with similarly exposed almost-neon
purple and blue ligaments and porcelain bones as a method of his art's promotion to wear around town. But while anatomical themes appear as his forte in his work, his second primary theme capturing in watercolours is soldiers in the U.S. military, primarily the Marines he says.
'The military pieces were derived from countless interviews with military personnel deployed overseas, in the attempts to illustrate what they went through, the war in their eyes,' he writes on his website of his work.
As described, some of his pieces capture a couple embracing, one in military uniform, with an open explanation on if the solider is coming home or leaving. Another captures fear, pain, and on-point reaction from four other soldiers captured in the midst of war with one of them appearing critically injured.
‘There's the wounded's scream of pain, the higher ranking's scream of
orders, the rookie's scream of disbelief, and the seen it before's reaction of the medic, waiting for orders. This piece is hands down my favorite of the series, and has gotten lots of notoriety,' he writes of it.
Explaining his anatomical watercolours, featuring both men and women coolly stretching and unzipping pockets of flesh to expose their bones and organs underneath, he writes: 'My anatomical works combine classic poses, in dramatic chiaroscuro lighting, with a very contemporary twist... illustrating what's underneath the skin, and the portrayed figure dissects a region of their body to show the structures that lay beneath.'
