About the Item

Image dimensions: 92cm x 61cm / 36 inches x 24 inches Framed dimensions: 94.8cm x 64.4cm / 37.2 inches x 25.4 inches This original acrylic painting by David Schock beautifully captures a moment of serene tranquility, as a young girl walks along the beach, her toes dipped in the cool waves lapping at the shore. Born in Boston in 1962, David Schock would hone his craft on both sides of the Atlantic, gaining a degree in Massachusetts, studying in Exeter and then returning to work with New York’s Art Students League. Working with English painters like Michael Mayer, and American portraitists such as Aaron Shikler, his student travels have lent his paintings a diversity that is still apparent today. While David would begin his career working as a portrait painter, he would soon add realist landscapes to his output, exhibiting his skill at both in one man shows in both Britain and the States. His best works have come from his ability to seamlessly combine both styles, creating informal portraits of figures situated in richly realised landscapes from around the world. Schock’s subtle and multifaceted treatments of a range of subjects have been widely collected, appearing in collections in Asia, Europe and the US.

A Day at the Beach

Burning sun, waves lapping at the shore, the lingering scent of suntan lotion – it’’s an endless summer day at the beach.
