Sean Flores
Sean Paul Flores is a visual artist who was born in Los Angeles California in March of 1993. He began experimenting with art and mixed media before the age of 6, carrying it with him throughout his life. Growing up in LA gave him a strong connection to both graffiti and street art. He saw this as both an outlet and an escape, a place of self-reflection and exploration of one’s self.
Sean's stunning mixed media canvases place cartoon characters from his youth in a contemporary context, and are striking for the upbeat mood, the vibrant palette and the intricacy of the patterns he uses within highly detailed composition.
He refrences the retro culture that he loved when he was growing up saying."I use a lot of nostalgic characters from my youth because I feel like the kid in me will always be in these paintings. That kid that just wanted more". Like many artist whose early life was challenging , he discovered that creating art made things better , helped him to see through the difficulties and offered a way to overcome his past and to find what he describes as "pure joy". He is, he says, a positive person with a huge amount of energy, and he believes his works reflects this side of his personality.
Growing up he was faced with many obstacles that fueled the flame of his creativity and curiosity for art. From witnessing both of his parents separately pass to sneaking out late at night in the name of graffiti, Art is one thing that has always stayed by his side and very close to his heart.
Moving on from graffiti he began his career in the world of fashion, painting customs designs on sneakers, but soon branched out into creating the images for their own sake on canvas and panels. He developed a highly distinctive style, spray painting the background onto canvas, outlining the subjects, and then adding relevant logos or classic pop art images to build interest, pattern, texture, and impact. He enjoys working with a spray can as this was his medium of choice in the early days , but over the years has become a highly skilled painter and now loves working with a brush and other mediums.
His work is in the collection of long list of athletes, musicians and entrepreneurs from World Series champion baseball players. professional boxers, billboard musicians and the list goes on.
