David Cottingham

London based artist. Paintings, Drawings and Prints. Recent international shows and work published in several books both here and in the US.


I work in both the abstract and figurative traditions.The acrylic abstract paintings are inspired by landscapes, cities, spaces, memories and the emotional power of colour and light. The large figurative based work is inspired by dance and dancers. These abstracted and complex figure paintings aim to celebrate the body and express movement of the human figure in its purist form.
Both work is created in series, see website.

St Martins School of Art, studied with William Tucker, Philip King and Sir Anthony Caro.
Exhibited in London, New York, Chicago and Rome.
