David Skaggs is the owner and operator of Dave’s World Art, headquartered in Sarasota,  FL. This is a highly regarded artist in Sarasota County.

David developed as an artist through a series of events five years ago.  While off work due to some health issues, he began taking walks on the beach and finding interesting items that had washed up to shore.  While recovering, he was looking for something to do and began creating works of art from these “found” items.  That was only the beginning.  David found so much joy in his creations and in the happiness that they brought to others.  His main focus these days is to “make people happy” with his art.  His motto is “Love is the World’s Heartbeat.”

He started Dave’s World Art in 2014.  You can find his art all around Sarasota and Manatee  counties, as well as nationally.  He will be part of the Village of the Arts in Bradenton for “A Village Fairyland” this coming weekend.  Drop by and check out his Fairy Village, and other select Sculptures!  He has great pieces for purchase and on display at the Historical Spanish Point Museum, Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium and local seafood restaurants as well.  

Dave’s World Art has been featured many places including  the SunCoast View on WWSB, Channel 10, Sun Newspaper, the Herald Tribune and other local outlets.  He has won numerous prizes from exhibitions of his Sculptures constructed from palm fronds and recycled materials, many washed ashore on Siesta Key Beach.  He is currently working with USF and the Manatee School District for a Name the Manatee Project. 

In addition to running a successful art business, David supports many charitable organizations benefiting children and the arts.

The result, one of the most successful artists in Sarasota!
