The cherries

The texture of David’s paintings is very important to the aesthetic of his work. He creates authenticity in his painting through a series of deliberate mistakes. Layers are built up using jute hessian, then David cuts primitive drawings into the paint using a blade. Colours have been limited in this series, to unite and simplify the paintings.
