Garibaldi was born in Los Angeles, California. In July 2006 he was invited to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, Ohio, where he painted a portrait of Mick Jagger. In September 2008 he was the opening act for Blue Man Group's tour in Canada and the United States. He has also opened for Snoop Dogg. During the halftime of a Golden State Warriors basketball game in November 2007, Garibaldi painted Carlos Santana, after which the musician unexpectedly greeted Garibaldi and later signed the creation. On April 11, 2009, he appeared on The 700 Club and painted a portrait of Jesus. On July 29, 2010, he painted his first self-portrait during a benefit performance at the 11th Annual Sacramento Film and Music Festival at the Crest Theatre, following the world premiere of Walking Dreams, a documentary about his work directed by Chad Ross. On April 20, 2012, Garibaldi painted Jeremy Lin during halftime of the New York Knicks game.
Garibaldi appeared in the seventh season of America's Got Talent. He has gone forward all the way to the finals with his act, David Garibaldi and His CMYK's, finishing in fourth place.
Garibaldi's work is strongly derivative of the work of artists Denny Dent and Jean-Pierre Blanchard.
