Cope, the artist behind the drawings in Dantica Brands Costa Rica, is widely admired as one of the country’s most talented artists. Having lived his entire life in the rural Caribbean lowlands, he draws endless inspiration from the surrounding nature. Completely self-taught, he has never taken a formal art class, yet he masterfully captures the life, attitude, and motion of birds. His extraordinary eye for detail and anatomical accuracy is reflected in every feather he draws. Cope’s preferred mediums are pen-and-ink and acrylic, some of which are featured here on our T-shirts.
