ABOUT SWARTZ

Clayton Swartz Biography

Complex layering of bio-morphic shapes, interweaving design, translucent and saturated
colors only begins to describe my unique metal sculptures. Looking into any one of my
sculptures will take you deep into a maze of parts, design, formal unities, and holistic
composition that will leave you contemplating the sculptures design and meaning. I use an
array of techniques and processes employing MIG and TIG...

TESTIMONIALS

Customer Reviews

Teri Pierce


Clayton’s art is so beautiful and VERY sturdy. It is used both inside
and outside. My angelfish has her own spot in my home and I admire her
all of the time. I’m getting ready to pick up a SwARTz crab, and I can
hardly wait.. I LOVE 💗 SwARTz Art!




Greg Caminiti

I have about ten pieces of his artwork all over the inside and outside of my house. I get nothing but compliments and stares!

Mary MacKenzie

The beauty of the art fills my heart
every time I go there.

Robert Knoop


Clayton is a creative phenom. His work is interesting, provocative and
durable. It's perfect for all outdoor applications. I have several
SwARTz pieces and receive compliments on them almost daily.

Phil Madsen

We saw some of Clayton Swartz's pieces for the first time
at the Images art show in New Smyrna Beach on Jan, 25, 2014. These fine
pieces present a depth, detail and a brilliance of color that are
simply stunning! Swartz's work is uplifting and joyous. It was a real
treat to view them in the sunlight and chat with this personable,
approachable artist. Bravo! Clayton, Bravo!

Megan Marie Patterson

For Clayton to be so down to earth and still stay so true to his roots and home is just as remarkable as his art. His work is more than talent. It shows passion and drive. The spark created from his work provides something for everyone!

Scott Dalton

I think it is wonderful to have a place like this in our area, ART brings culture and class to the community.
