DAVID CALLAHAN

David Callahan is a painter who works consistently from painting to painting but expresses a new story each time. David’s subject matter is inspired by the intensity of his dreams and his vibrant imagination. Within each of his works figures, faces, homes, trees, and other living objects are hidden or revealed in layers of color. The most common characteristics of his paintings are a vibrant palette and unique use of space within the composition. The landscape is a reoccurring subject matter, where David’s unexpected color choices and scale shifts push his compositions toward abstraction.

More recently, David has been creating forms in ceramic. By disengaging shapes from their grounding, David is able to make endless combinations of natural and animal forms.
