ARTIST STATEMENT
Bored with the 'conforming' rivers, mountains and streams, I unintentionally painted a moon in one of my skies, not realizing that it would change my subject matter indefinitely. Working exclusively with oils, and relying on my imagination, I have passionately attempted to portray the Celestial Universe as i would like to see it.
I attempt to soften the harsh, colorless reality of outerspace, with vivid yet subtle tones, and smooth lined, mystical imagery.
My goal is to bring a soothing calm to these otherwise undesirable conditions. Ambiguous light is intentional, and water is abundant in most of my work, as it is one of the most basic elements required for life as we know it.
Aside from the fact that original works are available for purchase, it is my wish, first and foremost, that the viewer is intrigued and calmed by the mystical, painted images presented before them.
sincerely, David G
...committed to bringing the infinite sky to you...
