Daniel Belardinelli (American, born. 5.12.61) is an American self-taught artist and autodidact. He was born and raised in NYC & maintains his studio in Soho, NYC.

Daniel had some communication and learning difficulties, but was able to express and process his feelings through his compositions. By the time the Manhattan native was 15 years old he frequented Studio 54 and Xenon. As a result he met and was influenced by Andy Warhol, Larry Rivers, Christopher Makos, and Antonio Lopez. He began to develop addictions and eventually was able to keep them at bay by drawing and painting about them and continues to redirect his self-destructive urges into his work. Belardinelli uses multiple mediums to paint and was the first artist to create nailpolish paintings.

Daniel drew what he heard from the blackbox recording of Flight 93 of 9/11 and these paintings were included in Jere Longman's book "Among the Heroes". At the last minute Belardinelli had cancelled plans to join his uncle William Cashman on flight 93, which ultimately crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

Belardinelli has shown at the Outsider Art Fair for the past 18 years, and his work hangs in the American Visionary Art Museum.
