Capturing the essence of the subject as a fleeting moment in time requires speed of hand to achieve the spontaneity I like to record.
It is important to pass on the gifts and talents to share with others and to sustain the life of this wonderful medium of Watercolour Painting.
A student says:
“Patient teaching, wonderful work, charismatic demos.”
The light in its many guises and drama of fleeting impressions are important factors when I am viewing this special world that is ours to be a part of.
A student says:
“We really appreciate having an artist of your calibre, both as a practitioner and a teacher, to give us so much of your precious time – it is a great experience.”
As we journey through life there are changes to our lives and to the world we live in. Because as an Artist I have received so much from the beauty of Nature and all that it offers, I need to put something back.
A student says:
“David is a great communicator.” “A wonderful, inspiring experience.”
My passion to express myself through my painting remains constant, the experiences are often challenging, moving and uplifting.
A student says:
“David gives fabulous instruction.”
