Taste Studios SF

e weddings, fashion shows and public appearances. As a Fine Artist, he makes beautiful and whimsical art works using everything from broken toy parts and jewelry, to various scraps of wood, plastic, fabric and metals he salvages. He then sculpts, paints and re-imagines all that "Stuff" into 2D and 3D works which he then finishes off with a shiny and glittery veneer that he uses as a lure to capture his viewers attention.
