His heart is for art.\u00a0
\nThat is why Point Loman Daniel Juarez, after a long hiatus, has come back to the Peninsula to begin a new career painting curbs.
\nJuarez\u2019s art comes naturally. His father, Louie Juarez, is a well-known San Diego County artist.
\nJuarez talked about how he got involved illustrating curbs.
\n“Someone asked me to paint their curb a month ago,” he said. “Others saw it and asked me to do theirs. So far, I\u2019ve done 20 around town \u2013 and all from word of mouth.”\u00a0
\nDaniel has borrowed thematically from his dad. “One of the themes he is known for painting is sailboats,” he said, adding someone recently asked him to paint sailboats on their curb.\u00a0
\n“It wasn\u2019t very easy to do since my dad paints with watercolors, and I use spray paint,” pointed out Daniel Juarez. “Also, my dad is a more talented artist. But I was still happy to try and re-create his work.”
\nSomewhat surprisingly, Juarez noted that, during the past 20 years,\u00a0there have been many “curb artists” in San Diego who have painted curbs.
\nBut Juarez believes his curb art is a cut above.
\n“I do all mine free hand,” he said, noting, “Everyone else has used stencils.”\u00a0
\nThe curb artist takes special requests. “When someone asks me to paint something they have in mind, I never say no, and enjoy bringing their idea to life.”
\nJuarez lived in Point Loma years ago, and just moved back recently.
\n“I am so happy to be back in this community,” he said, adding he only charges “whatever someone can afford,” to paint their curbs, while adding he typically charges about $70 to $90.
\n“Thank you all for welcoming me back with open arms,” said Juarez regarding his Point Loma return.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
