David Wilkey

Biography

I am a self taught artist, having previously worked in the design and print industry for most of my life and painting in my spare time. My subject is inspired by what's around me – particularly people and the streets of my hometown, Bath. When I walk or travel, I typically take numerous photographs and like to browse through them upon returning home, looking for that unique moment captured. Narrative is important to me, which led me to a personal recent project on people's obsession with mobile phones. I am a member of the Bath Society of Artists and the Frome Art Society.
