CUSTOM CORPORATE ART: Selected artworks commissioned by various corporations around the world.

Custom corporate art is an effective tool for businesses to enhance their brand, engage employees and customers, and contribute to the cultural and artistic life of the community. Custom developed corporate art can foster a sense of pride and loyalty among employees by creating a stimulating and inspiring environment that reinforces a company's brand identity and values. Studies have shown that art has a positive effect on mental and emotional well-being, and can appreciate in value over time, making it a valuable long-term asset for businesses. Commissioning art that celebrates the company's history, culture, and achievements can create a more welcoming and engaging workspace that inspires creativity and collaboration. Custom art can also convey complex ideas and messages in an accessible and engaging way, creating a unique visual identity that sets businesses apart from the competition. In summary, custom corporate art is a worthwhile investment for businesses seeking to enhance their brand identity and messaging, and support the arts and cultural life of the community.

Paul Caridad Sanchez: A colorful portrait for a colorful person

Paul is one of the brightest persons I met online. Adventurous, friendly, kind, unstoppable, colorful. I wanted to create a portrait inspired of my neo-futurism studies but changing the aggressive strait lines and the polygons to curves and organic shapes. I think that these forms express Paul's world better.

The twin black & white portraits of Steve Jobs


Steve Jobs 2011 (white), originally uploaded by tsevis.

Steve Jobs 2011 (black)

These are my latest twin portraits of Steve Jobs. I created them for Panorama, Italy's Number 1 weekly magazine. The creative director of the magazine requested a 'white on white' portrait where Steve Jobs was to be illustrated with all of Apple's white products. I created the mosaic but then became curious with what a black version would look like. The Panorama team included the initial portrait on the latest cover of the the financial section of the magazine - Panorama Economy.
I'm not really sure which of the two I prefer but i'll probably print them both, one next to the other, for my office...

This is the actual cover of Panorama Economy
