Bryan Helfand is a Freelance Artist who is focused on creating original mixed media paintings, wood carvings and murals. His passion for surfing and love of the  ocean has influenced his subject matter and molded his unique style. His art is a reflection of what he sees, feels and experiences in and around the ocean. His art revolves around the use of light, color, contrast, texture, depth, energy, balance and flow. He paints with Acrylics on 100% re-purposed wood that incorporates hand-cut 3-D carvings with resin. Bryan's art has shown in solo and group shows in California, Hawaii and Japan. In 2012 he was commissioned by Facebook to paint a mural inside of their headquarters located in Menlo Park, CA. He resides in San Diego's North County.
