3D Graffiti - Michael Sexton

Sculpture by Michael Sexton
 Born in California, Michael Sexton has studied painting, sculpture and carpentry across the country and has apprenticed with famed sculptor John Chamberlain in Sarasota, FL. Sexton turns his strokes in paint into tangible forms with his sculptures. "To the layman, I describe my work as 3-D graffiti," Sexton says. With such fluid lines and dynamic shapes, it is no wonder this is the phrase used to describe his work. 

"[My favorite pieces] are my transitional pieces, every thing learned and applied to the form," he says. Sexton refers to nature as the ultimate example of form, and it shows, as he enjoys working on his art outdoors. Enjoy the nice spring weather as you visit Sexton’s open-air studio and learn about his work.
