The Man, the Mouse, the Moose, and the Mountain Lion Painting

David Michael Halliwell is a fine artist from Victoria, BC, Canada with roots in London, UK. Dreamlike, surrealistic, romantic, nostalgic, strikingly powerful, highly imaginative and hauntingly real, David Halliwell's paintings are the result of diligent effort combined with superb draftsmanship and complete mastery of his medium. Halliwell paints as he lives, spontaneously and intensely. Cloistering himself from distracting influences, he works on a number of images simultaneously, returning to each canvas as a new thought emerges. The finished work may represent hundreds of hours of concentration, beginning as a sketch on paper and evolving surely through a process which includes detailed drawings on the canvas itself. His strict finishing quality masks the underlying transformation each painting has experienced leaving the viewer with an impression as fresh as the last brush stroke. David Halliwell is currently available for commission. To contact David, please email him at davidhalliwellbc@gmail.com
