About the Artist

David has been working from his Cushing, Maine, studio since 1991.Painting intuitively whatever interests him, his work covers a wide range of subjects, most of which are found close to home. His work is about unifying the natural with the man-made, as well as the simple pleasure of seeing, painting the point at which the optical and psychological meet.
