About the Item

ARTIST: David Smith (1949-) British TITLE: "River Chelmer Essex" SIGNED: lower right MEDIUM: oil on canvas SIZE: 106cm x 76cm inc frame CONDITION: excellent DETAIL: David Smith ranks among Britain's most famous contemporary artists: a realist, distinguished for his atmospheric, richly detailed landscapes. Born in Essex, David left school at the age of fifteen to help support his family. His grandfather, a keen amateur artist, encouraged his grandson from early childhood. By 1978, fine art galleries also noticed and recognized David as a gifted artist. He was then able to make painting his full time career. His love of fishing in his formative years gave him awareness of the interesting colours within the reflections of water, which are depicted in David's fine river scenes, which are appreciated by all who see them. His son Michael Smith has followed in the family tradition is now talented landscape artist in his own right.David's captivating paintings profoundly echo his love of the British countryside. This is fully demonstrated by his exceptional mastery of light and colour. David's meticulous paintings, leave a lasting impression with art lovers and distinguished fine art collectors throughout Europe, Australia, Thailand, Saudi Arabia, North America and the Pacific Rim. "I think that the creation of the art is a wonderful gift, the vibrant colour in visual art helps more people to become aware of the beauty around them, and brings to the forefront that awareness of creativity within us all. I feel that colour promotes healing, which I think is very important in our world today. It means a great deal to me to know that my paintings are appreciated worldwide. I feel a great sense of achievement and satisfaction from my life as an artist. It truly is a wonderful world, full of beauty in which I believe we are all so privileged to live." He is represented by the prestigious and longstanding E Stacy Marks Gallery of North Yorkshire.
