About the Artist
David King is a professional Fine Artist and Oil Painter from Massachusetts. He primarily uses oil paints and graphite pencil as a medium.
He started painting in 2014 after a carpentry saw injury to his left hand(thumb and index finger.) Being left-handed, this experience caused him to have a perspective shift and he then completely immersed himself in the fine arts and improving at oil painting.

David's artworks are often fantastic and elegant, revealing a kind of beauty behind the darkness. Although dark in nature, his work seems to highlight the better side of humanity showing commonalities between us and them. I feel in many of his images, it is the human essence and the struggle to accept our differences and shortcomings as humans that shines through.
Within David's artistry, there is a depth of emotions in each brush stroke and layer of paint applied. His attention to detail is masterful and his keen imagination illuminates throughout his surreal realms and characters, creating a truly unique visual experience.
