10David Starley (Resident Artist)
75 Albert Rd
David is an archaeologist turned professional artist living in Saltaire. He aims to evoke an emotional response to our environment through his art. Oil paint is applied thickly using a knife to create an almost sculpted effect.
The subject matter includes the landscape of Yorkshire and beyond. Trees are the central focus of much of his work. By portraying the forms and character of individual specimens, or groups in woodland, the viewer is led to a greater appreciation of these living structures.
