David Short

David Short was born in Nottingham in 1940 and was encouraged to pursue his interest, and obvious talent for art during his early school years. He later attended the Nottingham School of Art.

David painted as an amateur for several years followed by a number of years as a semi-professional. He spent a great amount of time in Devon and Cornwall studying the landscape, the sea, and inshore boats. In 1972, he achieved his ambition to become a full-time artist.

David has always felt the need to vary his subject matter. He believes the variety keeps his work fresh and adds to its collectability. Initially, his reputation was built around his marine work but his portfolio now includes landscapes, beach scenes and scenes of Tuscany.

David’s paintings are much sought after by discerning galleries throughout Europe and by private collectors worldwide.

Né à Nottingham (Angleterre) en 1940, David Short a été encouragé dès ses premières années d'école à donner suite à son intérêt et à son évident talent pour la peinture. Plus tard, il devait fréquenter la "Nottingham School of Art".

Après plusieurs années passées à pratiquer son art à titre d'amateur et plusieurs autres à le faire de façon semi-professionnelle, David réalisa enfin son rêve de devenir artiste à plein temps en 1972. Dans l'entre-temps, il avait passé de longs moments dans les comtés de Cornouailles et de Devon à y étudier le paysage marin et les embarcations au mouillage.

David a toujours aimé varier ses sujets. C'est cette diversité, croit-il, qui garde à son oeuvre sa fraîcheur et la faveur des collectionneurs. Au début, David s'est acquis une réputation pour ses marines mais on trouve maintenant parmi ses toiles des paysages, des panoramas de plage et des scènes de la contrée toscane.

Les toiles de David sont prisées des galeries d'art de bon aloi partout en Europe et des collectionneurs privés à travers le monde.
