France

European Tour 2017

On the first of May 2017, Margot and I packed our bikes onto a plane to Paris. Then, breathing deeply of second-hand cigarette smoke, we put them together in a taxi rank at Charles de Gaulle airport and rode off

Cycling in the Vercors

Cycling in the Vercors

Or – how to succeed in the French Alps without really trying. So, my understanding is that the Vercors is part of the French Alps, but not the nasty pointy part, more the gentle but still spectacular part. We were

What’s Next for Team Dave?

I'm now working on a series of landscapes, or maybe they're seascapes, set around Aldinga and Myponga in SA. It's a place I've been visiting and looking at for as long as I can remember.

I'm also starting yet another series of Venice works, probably in oil for the first time.

Before that was a series of paintings called "Conversations with Cezanne" which were exhibited in August 2018. They were quite new for me - a return from increasingly abstract paintings to something a bit more representational. It's about looking and seeing as deeply as possible, and has been part of a tremendous year of growth and discovery.
