Rinze honed in on his mural skills while based in Amsterdam. He worked on creating art murals for stores and restaurants. His commercial success includes clients like Cannon and Mercedes, as well as many other Fortune 500 companies where he worked as an art director. Inspiration for his art comes from fashion and music, shaping his personal aesthetic. He takes music and the art of experiences of life as influences for his work. We over at rime are extremely pleased with the piece currently at our Brooklyn location.
