Puttin' the fun in funky and the eek in unique.
Welcome to Dave's House of Mirth and Art Crimes.
I reckon you're taking a look at this bio because you saw something in my shop that either
amused you
and you wanted to know more about my vibrant mind,
or,
ticked you off
and you want to know what the hell I was thinking (vibrant mind or no).
If it's the former,well, howdy. Thanks
If it's the latter, well howdy to you, too. Sorry, I ain't telling.
I will say that I have been making art for longer than I'd like to think about. I was a fine arts major at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. I also build furniture of my own design as well as reproductions of European antiques.
Craftsmanship is very important to me- everything that I offer in my shop is made with meticulous care.
A note about the prints. Many of the elements in the prints are taken from paintings and sculptures that I have made. I also incorporate elements from 19th century academic paintings and alter other images to produce new simulacra that live in the murky, binary depths of my computer's innards until they are professionally printed. The quality of these prints is outstanding

My work has appeared in numerous museums and galleries including
the Flagler Museum in Palm Beach Fla.
the Amarillo Museum of Art, Amarillo TX
Fuller Craft Museum, Brockton, Mass
Clark Gallery, Lincoln Mass
