About us
Tevin Anthony Causon
Co-Founder & Curator
Tevin studied art in college and university, though he left the latter with self-doubt in his own ability. He went on to build a successful career in recruitment and finance, but the desire to work with art never dimmed. That long-held pull eventually brought him back to the market he loved — choosing the works that hang here.
Daniel James Mardell
Co-Founder and Creative Director
Daniel has a strong foothold in the art world, having worked closely with the studios of Richard Hambleton, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Banksy and Keith Haring. He specialises in 1980s street art, but in recent years has shifted focus to working directly with some of the highest-grossing emerging artists of the last five years.
Founder’s note
“My grandfather framed pictures for other people his whole life and never owned one. I started this gallery so that owning something good would feel ordinary, not intimidating.”

Founder’s note
“For ten years, I helped galleries build a family of collectors. But once a work found its home, I had little control over what came next — and too often, the care and connection ended with the sale.
I founded Causon Daniel to change that.
Art deserves relationships built to last: grounded in trust, given time, shaped by transparency and guided by a genuine understanding of each person's ambitions. Today, those principles sit at the heart of everything we do — creating a more thoughtful, personal art world for all.”

Values
Four rules we keep.
- 01
Buy fewer things
A collection is defined by what it excludes. We would rather place one right painting a year than fill a wall.
- 02
Know the history
Provenance, exhibition record, condition. Written down, verified, handed over with the work.
- 03
Price without theatre
Clear figures, no bidding pressure, no invented scarcity. The value is in the object.
- 04
Stay after the sale
Framing, installation, insurance valuations, eventual resale. The relationship outlasts the invoice.
