About the Item
Artist Comments
Following rainfall, a small brook remains in the heart of a hill in Willow City near Fredericksburg, Texas. Bluebonnets scatter across the ground, creating a tonal harmony with the water and the sky. The lush greens of the grass and trees infuse a serene beauty to the landscape.
About the Artist
David has always wanted to be a painter. His professional career consisted of design and illustration roles, but it was not until a brush with his own mortality that David decided to change careers and become a full-time artist. “I quit my job in Houston and moved to the small and slow-paced border town of Del Rio, Texas, where I am now living my dream,†he says. Inspired by the outdoors, he often paints outside or takes photographs on his road trips to which he refers once back in his studio. The resulting paintings are marked by impressionist-style brushwork and a natural use of color. David’s pastoral scenes of the countryside are idyllic, invoking within the viewer a serene sense of calm.
