About the Item
David Bareford’s distinctive style incorporates traditional themes with spontaneity. About his work he comments,
“The term inspiration is overworked and doesn’t apply to what I try to accomplish. I work at painting, I don’t wait for inspiration.” His answer for his success in painting: “long hours, a lot of second tries, and an unwavering commitment to excellence, meeting my own criterion.”
It is David Bareford’s profound ability to capture natural beauty in a work of art which has gained him overwhelming success as an artist and painter. The essence of his creative spirit remains in his thirst for the splendors of harmony in both form and color.
“I paint things I feel are beautiful. Sometimes I’ll watch the fishing boats coming in for the day in the afternoon sun. The sun will be gleaming on those old boats, making the green and reds and oranges of their hulls vibrant--simply beautiful in the light. I know what kind of life these men live - how they struggle to make ends meet, how their boats are old and beat up. But at that moment those boats are beautiful, and I don’t believe that I have to talk about the unattractive parts of life in my paintings. I’ve chosen to look at the beautiful aspects.”
Certainly it is the vitality of his paintings which captivates and enriches his broad audience.

- He/Him/TheyBy Nicholas BergerLocated in Greenwich, CTAmerican, b. 1949 In his more than three decades as an artist, Nicholas Berger (b. 1949) has created an outstanding body of work that continues to evolve and excite viewers.
