This was painted after a conversation with a person who was looking through David's portfolio. The man commented that he thought his work resembled that of Dali, and David said, 'Yeah, but Dali has never made a skydive.' The man jokingly pondered over what Dali would paint if he had made a skydive, so David decided to paint it himself Close text

A woman, or two, a kitty, several serpents outlining at least three different landscapes make this painting one of the most schizophrenic in the current collection. It's part of a set of paintings depicting scenes painted within frames that are painted on canvas, trompe-l'oeil style. In it's finished state, fewer images will compete for attention and the outer edges will take on the texture of woodgrain and metal, giving the eye a nice place to rest after all the insanity near the core.

this is a mixed media piece. It was originally a drawing of the face only which was torn out and affixed with acrylic gel medium, then painted with oil. It's imagery is dark, some sad commentary on the fusion of corruptible flesh and technology. The texture of the surrounding architecture is tumorous growth, while there are flames like glimmering hopes that lose definition and disintegrate like unfinished thoughts. The eyes lose their skull, the lip is peeled open like a grapefruit, swollen and falling from the face, and there is a microphone posed and ready to receive any comment this decaying form might hope to impart, but it is far removed from any hope of communication. It stares. Close text

Depiction of the soul of a sailor friend. Scratched into the paint with the back of his brush, David wrote: 'Dumb 'ole people, weigh me down, like soil upon a seed
