Dave Parish

ARTIST STATEMENT:
While attending The School of Visual Arts in New York City, David studied under and was greatly inspired by world renown artists Nachume Miller and John Andre Gundelfinger. He painted figurative abstracts as well as abstract expressionistic works. He was represented by Ariel Gallery in Soho. Over the years Dave combined a professional commercial art career in corporate America in addition to fine art. He developed expertise in digital art creation and technology resulting in his own website development business combined with an art studio and gallery. After moving to Cape Cod, Dave painted representational seascapes and landscapes. Now residing in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida Dave has gone back to painting figurative abstracts.

Artist Statement:
"My recent works, figurative abstracts, are largely influenced by personal experiences, connections, and insights. The figures become part of the composition combined with the play of definition, balance and interaction of color and line."
