artist profile

David has had no formal training as an artist but has always had an overriding passion to paint. He was born and brought up in Tenby , attended University in Cardiff and qualified and practised as an Architect in London and Cardiff for many years.
An increase in demand for his architectural watercolours led to an exhibition of paintings at the Coach House Gallery in Caerfili and all the paintings exhibited were sold.

David, his wife and son, moved back to his native Pembrokeshire and into his present home “High Seas” in 1999. He combines his painting with his profession as an Architect.
Working originally in the medium of watercolour the majority of David's work is now in traditional oils. His versatility is wide ranging and although his favourite inspiration is his home town and in particular the harbour, boats and seasonal moods of the town he has also gained a reputation in the challenging subject of portraiture.
High Seas Gallery is the only outlet of David’s work although he has also shown a number of times at the annual exhibition of the Royal Society of Marine Artists in London.


High Seas Gallery is located in Tenby, a most beautiful and picturesque historic walled seaside town, the gallery is at its busiest in the summer months. However, we do an increasing amount of trading over the internet and are able to offer a nationwide courier service to our Clients.
