Hello, I’m David.
I’m a self-taught artist—despite the art degree. It’s life that taught me to really look, and keep evolving how I make art.
As an abstract painter, I explore nature and the sublime. Not just as an idea, but as a visceral experience—where awe and beauty meet vastness, danger, even unease. It’s the pulse of a storm, the stillness of a forest, the silence before something shifts.
I work in layers—bold color, gestural marks, translucent texture—to evoke depth and motion. My process fuses digital immediacy with traditional tactility: I begin on the iPad, then build on canvas with paint and physical media. The result is both ephemeral and raw.
I want my work to stir something elemental. To invite wonder, but also to remind us how powerful and unpredictable the natural world—and our emotional landscapes—can be. If my paintings make you pause, feel something deeper, or see the world with fresh eyes, then they’re doing their job.
