           Originally from Brazil, Krystiano started in an early age as muralist in a little town of Rio De Janeiro. He had the opportunity to study numerous art forms in Brazil like graphic design, silk screen, illustration, and fine arts. The passion for art grew naturally driving him to pursue an art career in commercial art and becoming a pioneer in his town with an art design company that supplied major businesses in Rio de Janeiro. 

            His vision and passion to develop and learn new forms of art and techniques launched him to travel to Italy and United States. In 1998, Krystiano crossed the ocean in search of new horizons. The faux finish business was a natural fit in his curriculum since he had experience in the art field and scenic industry.

      With the privilege to work along side many well known artists in different parts of the world, Krystiano unsurprisingly progressed to develop his own art styles. He studied and mastered art forms such as photorealism, airbrushing, graphic designs, scenic sets, faux finishes, and more. He decided to specialize in European plasters and ornamental ceiling designs, and now he brings this skills to his clients with expertise and great dedication.

Krystiano enjoys to teach from beginners to experienced artists and bring his knowledge into the classroom to equip them with innovative finishes in a pleasant environment.
