Hello-
David Hervey here. I am a painter and musician from Wilmington, NC. I
grew up at the beach and have enjoyed art and music since a young age. I
started my painting career shortly after graduating from ECU in the
spring of 1997. My main media interests are in acrylic painting as well as
mask and puppet making. Recently, I have started custom painting
guitars to get a true one-of-a-kind instrument look. I draw my
inspiration from God my creator, and from my awesome friends and family. I love to
spark feelings of happiness in my paintings, though serious subject
matter is often portrayed as well. Both realism and abstraction are
captured in my works as I feel it helps to keep me balanced and never
bored with my projects. I strive for my work to exhibit vibrancy, though
not necessarily perfect realism. I enjoy impressionistic realism because it
captures life’s beauty in an original, energetic way. People (specifically
faces) are often expressed in my paintings and masks. I find humans to
be very interesting subject matter. I consider harmony and balance to be
very important in art and life in general. This makes life sweet and
continually interesting…
Until we meet again, may your
journey be blessed…
