At school David was always regarded as a good draughtsman but never anticipated a career in art. He works extensively in pastels and a painting of his daughter resulted in painting portraits of friends children.

One month after selling his first portrait David gave up a good salaried job and company car to concentrate on art. He started going to dog shows and, as a result, most of his work is of dogs. More recently, he has turned his attention to horses.

David's talent has shown incredible development in a very short time, and within one year of embarking on his career as an artist, Sally Mitchell published three delightful and very successful prints.
