36 1/2" by 39" framed. Title is Somewhere Between Earth and Enchantment. David was born in Chicago. His mother was a painter and print maker, his father a painter and sculptor. David showed an instinctive interest in everything his parents did. With their encouragement he explored drawing, painting, writing and other forms of creative expression. Although influenced by such artists Pollock, Calder, Kandinsky and Gorky, David wanted to express himself using techniques of his own invention. This discovery occurred in New Orleans while restoring historic properties. This work introduced him to tools and materials from work sites that inspired his unique style. Without the constraints of traditional techniques his creativity burst forth in prolific output. David's painting involves a variety of techniques of abstraction combined with the assorted shapes and figures. He produces large canvases often colorfully covered with layers of intricate imagery and explosive action. Or as with much of his recent work a simpler more subtle meditative feel. His vision is to create pieces that aren't just decorative or in the background, but rather engage people and become a part of his collectors’ lives. In 1996 David and his wife Deborah organized a one-person art auction, showing over 60 of his paintings helping to raise funds and awareness for the Austin, Texas HIV Wellness Center. Up to the present he has had more than 25 solo shows in alternative art spaces. David presently lives, and paints in Northern California.
