About the Item

"The art I make does not tell a direct story, but prompts one to find things truly unseen. The works develop through intuitive improvisations, actions upon surface, and lines perpetually reflecting and responding to the previous surface condition until each piece manifests the familiar - a rightness of resolution - the gestalt. This echo of familiarity drives my work, as I simultaneously move head-hearted toward and away from where it comes." - David A. Dreyer David A. Dreyer was born in Dallas, and earned his BFA and MFA at Southern Methodist University. He has had solo exhibitions at The McKinney Avenue Contemporary in Dallas and The Grace Museum in Abilene, in addition to six solo exhibitions at Valley House Gallery. Including the artist-made frame, the overall dimensions are 13 1/2 x 12 1/2 inches.
