Meet David Graff, whose artistic journey has taken him along various creative avenues, shaping him into the accomplished visual artist he is today.

Initially drawn to a career in music, David ventured into the visual arts in 1994, founding his own faux-finishing company. His innate talent quickly earned him recognition, leading to successful projects across vibrant cities such as Vancouver, Hong Kong, and Los Angeles, where his exquisite work on the lobby of the Wilshire Grand was honored with an Interior Design Institute Award in 2001.
