Lighting was too good not to take, I often miss photography and will start sharing some of my old photos. While AI is an awesome useful tool in Art it’s supposed to be just that not a takeover and the amount of people posting AI photos as Photoshoots pushed me out of the game and back to physical art. I do see myself in the future shooting again maybe through reviewing my old work. #rantover #aiart #realphoto #lighting #basketball by @danieljaredphotos

“Horsepower”

Built to move. Forced to endure.

This piece breaks open the idea of strength—blending raw instinct with mechanical drive.

Not everything that moves is free.

$The heart feels. The brain explains. Both deceive. One romanticizes what is dying. The other justifies the decay. This piece lives in the fracture between emotion and logic… where illusion finally cracks and truth leaks through. #AbstractArt #SurrealArt #DarkArt #SymbolicArt #GraphiteDrawing ConceptualArt MindVsHeart EmotionalTruth BlackAndWhiteArt ArtistOnInstagram by @danieljaredphotos$

The alarm clock is no longer a tool, it’s a face, a judge, almost a warden. The slanted, angry eyes and clenched expression turn time itself into something oppressive, watching, accusing. Beneath it, days fall like identical calendar pages into a dark chute, one after another, swallowed by routine. They are uniform, interchangeable, and slipping away, suggesting how easily life becomes a conveyor belt of “later,” “tomorrow,” and “someday.”

The green base grounds the image like a false sense of stability, the illusion that everything is fine because the structure is still standing, even as the inside is a void consuming moments. The narrow funnel amplifies the feeling of inevitability. Once time enters, it does not return. It only disappears.

Minimal, graphic, and symbolic, the work speaks to the quiet horror of wasted potential and the violence of repetition. It is not about chaos, but about order taken too far, where schedules, alarms, and calendars stop serving life and begin devouring it.

It asks a simple, unsettling question:
How much of yourself has already fallen through?

My Final Artwork for 2025: “The Path”

The road bends because it has to.
Creation, order, belief, temptation, collapse, fire, and return — all on the same route. #contemporaryart

Inside the shape of a single falling tear, a quiet truth unfolds.
The tear becomes a mirror—a doorway—revealing a graveyard not of bodies,
but of years, energy, and the life we never fully lived.

At the top sits the brain, pressed against a cold clock.
Its hands are frozen, hovering in the same place where countless hours
were spent overthinking, worrying, and wrestling with time instead of using it.
Below, a small fire burns inside a wooden structure, representing the life force—
the spark that was always there, yet often left unattended.

The path leads downward like a coffin lid or a staircase to nowhere,
a symbol of the moments we bury without meaning to.
The green sides represent unrealized potential,
all the living we could have done while time slipped quietly away. #Artfile #AbstractArt #SymbolicArt #SurrealArt #EmotionalArt #ModernArtDaily #MinimalistArt #ArtWithMeaning #ConceptualArt #GalleryArt #ArtistOnInstagram #TearArt #TimeSymbolism #LifeAndDeathArt #FigurativeAbstract #CreativeExpression #DeepArt #ArtCollectors #SoberArt #HealingThroughArt #MindAndFire #ArtPsychology #EmergingArtist #VisualMetaphor #ThoughtProvokingArt #floridaart #floridaartist by @danieljaredphotos

I love creating Abstract minimalist pieces but gotta keep my chops up by practicing some real world pieces, did eyes last week, drawing different wide noses this week and Lips next week since it’s been about 6 months since I attempted drawing a face I want to isolate each part first then pull them together for a full portrait.

✨ “Sweet Nothings” ✨
Words can be dressed in love, but without truth they lose their meaning.
This piece explores how empty promises, fake affection, and insincere whispers sound sweet at first, but eventually reveal their worthlessness—ending up discarded like waste. A commentary on deception, disconnection, and the fragile trust we place in words. A reminder, not everything that sounds beautiful is meant to be believed. #ContemporaryArt #ConceptualArt #SurrealismArt #ArtOfDeception #SymbolicArt #MixedMediaArt #PopArtInspired #ModernSurrealism #EmotiveArt #GalleryArt #ArtCollectors #FigurativeArt #BoldArt #ArtisticExpression #SurrealArtwork #ArtGalleryShare #ExpressionThroughArt #InstagramArtists #ThoughtProvokingArt #floridaart #southfloridaart #floridaartist by @danieljaredphotos
