BREVARD COUNTY • TITUSVILLE, FLORIDA – On Friday, February 24, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., the Downtown Art Gallery in Titusville will hold a reception welcoming new gallery artist Eric Pineiro.

A life-long artist, Eric eventually found his calling working with metal, including copper, bronze, brass and steel.

His earliest work depicted Florida fauna, wildlife and marine-scapes. His functional work includes doors, fountains, tables, architectural railings and gates.

In addition to wrought iron work, he combines materials found in scrap yards and thrift shops repurposed into sculptures.
