David Skillicorn

"Botanica 15-6" Abstracted Floral Mixed Media on Canvas Framed Painting

David Skillicorn's life as a visual artist began with extensive work with video in the late 1970's, leading to an earlier career as a multiple Emmy award-winning documentary filmmaker. His visual vocabulary deepened through those years while filming more than a million images across a wide spectrum of cultures and landscapes in more than forty countries. His intensive experiences filming the textures of culture, color and landscape throughout the world have had a lasting impact on his visual sensibilities and inform the unique visual language he has brought to his work as an abstract painter for the past twenty years. Skillicorn shows his work regularly at galleries throughout the United States, and has exhibited in a number of solo and juried group exhibitions nationwide. His paintings are part of innumerable public and private collections throughout the country, including Johns Hopkins, Regent Hotel, Intel, Northern Trust Bank and many others.
