Artist: David Skinner | Location: Asheville, NC
Asheville, NC
I am a painter living in the city of Asheville, North Carolina, where I have a studio in the River Arts District. I'm originally from Los Angeles but moved to Asheville in 2014 after spending two years in Ireland on a painting residency at the Burren College of Art. In addition to working on my painting, I also teach art studio and lecture classes at Warren Wilson College and Western Carolina University, though this semester I'm only teaching two art appreciation classes online due to the pandemic.
My painting has always been concerned with the gestural quality of paint and how the history of each painting can be traced through the various drips and marks that come together to create a final image. In my imagery, I often bridge the gap between representational and figurative art, and see much of my work as offering suggestive narratives for the viewer to engage with.
