David is largely inspired by his travels, particularly within the urban environment.
"I like the movement of light across a surface -- whether it's a valley, a river, a street or the human form. I particularly enjoy the shapes, the noise and the shadows of city landscapes – whether it’s the drama of lower East Side in New York, the reflections in the canals of Venice, the romance of Paris streets, the quirky laneways of Melbourne, the crowded pedestrian footpaths of Brisbane city, or the treed streets near my home and studio in Queensland."
