Sean is an Internationally known mixed-media artist, street artist and photographer with studios in the San Francisco Bay Area of California (Vallejo) and Miami Florida ( Wynwood ). He began his art career at the age of 7 by attending classes at the School For The Creative And Performing Arts in Cincinnati Ohio. Spending 15 years in Fort Myers Florida home to great men such as Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, and artist Robert Rauschenberg gave Sean a drive to do big things and keep creating.
Moving to Miami in 2002 he immediately became known for his sexually charged, “Warhol like” prints on wooden sheets. His Rabbit series featuring naked men and women in a bunny head and his massive murals have become a part of South Florida culture. His murals can be found on such famous landmarks as Tobacco Road (Miami’s oldest bar) and Revolution/Greenroom Nightclub on the “Sean Murdock Balcony” (The Bourbon Room from Rock of Ages) and in Miami’s Wynwood district.
Sean has been in hundreds of shows since his first one back in 1990 including the Chinese International Photographic Exposition, the Mr Brainwash Show, and the Sea No Evil - Sea Shepherd charity art show in Los Angeles. During Art Basel Miami every year since 2009 Sean has been a featured artist in multiple shows.
