Florentino is a self-taught artist hailing from the vibrant Oak Cliff area of Dallas, TX. From a young age, he found solace in art, experimenting with pencils, markers, and eventually diving into the world of graffiti, where he honed his skills with spray paint. By 2015, his work began to gain recognition, a testament to his dedication and talent.

Growing up in a strict household instilled in Florentino a disciplined approach to his craft, driving him to draw every day. As the years passed, what began as a hobby evolved into a profound passion, leading him to pursue a career as an artist.

Florentino's work is characterized by its striking distortions, achieved through the use of palette knives and squeegees. He skillfully adds a touch of “broken” beauty to his pieces, blending chaos with elegance. Inspired by the Renaissance and medieval eras, his creations reflect a deep exploration of emotions, drawing from the feelings and moments that spark his imagination.

Through his art, Florentino invites viewers to experience the interplay of beauty and imperfection, making each piece a unique expression of his artistic journey.
