데이비드 플로레스는 7살 무렵 어머니를 통해 유화를 처음 접한 이후로 화가, 벽화가, 디자이너로서 예술작업을 하고 있다.
그는 벽이나 캔버스와 같은 공간에 머물지 않고 커다란 조각품이나 제품 디자인으로까지 작품의 경계를 넓혔다.
그에게 있어 작품 형태의 차이는 중요하지 않다. 무엇인가를 창조한다는 것이 중요할 뿐이다.
데이비드 플로레스는 모자이크나 면 분할처럼 단번에 알 수 있는 그만의 스타일로 유명하다. 이러한 스타일은 플로레스가 수 년 동안 전념해 온

18살 때 데이비드 플로레스는 자신의 작품을 국제적으로 알리게 되고
현대 스케이트보드 산업에서 여전히 활발히 사용되고 있는 로고를 제작하게 된다.
플로레스는 무언가를 계속해서 창조하고자 한다.
