"A celebration of the untouched West—timeless, and much of it the same as it’s been for generations—my work highlights my preoccupation with the skies and landscapes of the American West, including the animals that live there. I have a particular soft spot for the vast, empty plains of southeastern Wyoming: a perfect stage for the drama of the clouds and colors of the expansive sky."

In addition to being part of the permanent collection of the Wyoming State Museum and private collections across the U.S., Danielle Kirby’s work has earned the esteemed Governor’s Choice Award from the Wyoming Governor’s Capitol Art Exhibition, the 2025 Western Spirit Art Show and Sale People's Choice award, and the 2025 Lincoln Gallery Regional Fine Art Show People's Choice award. She is a member of Cowgirl Artists of America, and an associate member of Women Artists of the West. Her work can be seen in galleries in Wyoming, Colorado, and Arizona.

Prior to pursuing art full time, Danielle spent 13 years as a graphic designer. Today, she lives in southern Wyoming with her husband and two boys where they enjoy caring for goats, gardening, and living a quiet life on the prairie.
