Locally in Sarasota his 3D street art, murals and mosaic work can be seen publicly in numerous locations around the city and in the surrounding areas as well.    

Exterior Latex Satin is my preferred medium for murals.  It has a fresh look and holds the colors well.   I enjoy working with all mediums, each one has its own unique qualities and techniques. Some of the different mediums you will see in my portfolio are enamel and acrylic spray paint, pastels, graphite, oil paint, and glass tile.   I can also work with any surface.  Some of the surfaces you will see are metal, block, brick, glass, wood, canvas, drywall, stucco, pavement, furniture, and asphalt.   For my recent 3D Street Art exhibition at the John and Mabel Ringling Museum I painted on a new surface for me, hand cut linoleum flooring.  Just like the different mediums each surface has its own unique quality and technique.

Total price of a commission depends on dimensions, detail, difficulty, and distance.  Contact me below in a message with your ideas, and I will be happy to give you a fair quote.    Before designs are created and painting begins, a deposit of half the total is required to start.  I will also accept a design fee of $500 which will be subtracted from the 1/2 deposit before painting begins.  We work on the design till it is exactly the look you are going for.  I will superimpose the design over the wall so you can see what the mural will look like in the space when it is completed.

Estimates will be based on $20 a square foot, or $750 a day, which very often work out to the same price.   If overnight traveling or a lift is required, the price is $1,250 a day.   In my profession we have a saying “the job isn’t real until the deposit is paid”.  I am happy to schedule and come look at walls and discuss ideas at no charge, but before any designs are made a 1/2 deposit or $500 design fee must be paid.  If you think the project you want is too costly for your budget, let me know your budget and I will let you know what we can do to stay within it.  I am also open to trade or part trade.  I have traded paintings and murals for food and beverage tabs, advertising, vehicles, vacation packages, and other services like dental work, and car repair.
