Absolutely love David’s work, i feel he uses his whole body when adding the first layers, quickly and intuitively.

What a lovely video. Love the loose way that the view is translated onto paper and then again onto canvas. Inspiring.

[@CornwallContemporary]

I’m so glad that you enjoyed it Sue, I really enjoyed making it ⭐️

Wonderful to see the process 👏 i love the way the movement of the body was used to create the piece. Its like its transmitted into the art to produce a dynamic coastal painting . I can really feel the mood and energy through Davids work ! Fabulous and thank you for sharing. I could watch you work all day !

[@CornwallContemporary]

Yes! David literally throws himself into his work, adding lines, movement, energy… all echoing the movement in the landscape 💗

It’s Cornwall in England 💗

[@dianashipp3589]

Thank you David. So interesting to watch your process. In those first, fast layers were you using acrylics?

[@CornwallContemporary]

Hi Diana, I’m so glad you enjoyed our film of David working. Yes after David has drawn on the canvas in charcoal he applies acrylic paint in fast washes to build up colour.
