David Skinner is a contemporary landscape painter focusing on the interplay of abstraction and representation. He works in both acrylic and oil paints on canvas, paper and wood panel. A native Californian, now living on the East Coast, his work is focused on the terrain of Western North Carolina and its unique light and texture. “In my own work I rely on an enhanced color palette and try to keep my brushwork as loose as possible without letting the image dissolve into chaos.” North Carolina
