Why have a portrait painted, and why oil on canvas?
Commissioning an oil portrait is a unique way to recognize achievement, celebrate success, or treasure a remembrance. Dave’s paintings are crafted to show character and interest. The depth and luminosity of oil painting in general and flesh tones in particular cannot be matched in any other medium. With the traditional academic techniques that Dave uses, an oil painting can last beyond a lifetime; it can be preserved as a precious heirloom and as a work of fine art.
