David Otto is a Brooklyn, NY-based freelance artist specializing in illustration and web design/development. His paintings are narrative, often surreal and expressive illustrations, many of which feature animals engaged in activities that comment subjectively about human issues.

David honed his ability in web design by developing his own site first, then by creating sites for fellow artists who also needed online catalogs of their work. He hand-codes his designs according to current XHTML & CSS standards, and offers integration and customization of Javascript, and popular blogging and networking tools.
