The Work Itself
Dalo's creative process is instinctual rather
than structured. He thrives on spontaneity,
allowing inspiration to strike in the
moment. Whether working on a
commissioned mural or a canvas piece, he
oen holds a broad vision in his mind,
letting his emotions guide the final product.
Each creation is deeply personal, infused
with his heart and soul, leading him to
turn down projects that don't align with
his artistic integrity.
NJ and NY Coection
New York City has played an enormous
role in shaping Dalo's artistic identity.
Growing up in Brooklyn and later moving
to Staten Island, he found inspiration in
the city's street art, graffiti, landmarks, and
even its raw, gritty energy. e NY and NJ
art scenes have provided him with a
network of fellow creatives who have
influenced his artistic evolution. Having
displayed, sold, and painted murals
throughout the tri-state area, he has le his
artistic mark across both regions,
particularly in Staten Island, which he
considers home.
The Busine of Art
Turning a passion into a business at 35 was
both a leap of faith and a testament to
Dalo's determination. He firmly believes
that his life's experiences led him to this
point, and despite the inevitable self-doubt
that plagues many artists, he remains
steadfast in his journey. His motto is
simple: keep pushing forward, as doubts
may come and go, but perseverance is key.
His portfolio is as diverse as his influences—
he has painted everything from food trucks
and restaurant interiors to school murals
