David is an internationally acclaimed and collected artist who continues to push the limits of contemporary realist oil painting.

Reflecting the language of dreams, David creates dark, hyperrealistic tableaux that suggest bizarre and intriguing narratives. David paints alla prima, an oil painting technique in which wet paint is applied to previous layers of wet paint. He works without detailed underpainting or studies, creating atmosphere through prominent, expressive brushstrokes and strong chiaroscuro.
