The full exhibition will be on view at Calgary Gallery until 8th June.
After this a smaller selection will be displayed.

About the Artist
David Page is a former architect, having run his own practice (Page/Park Architects) in Glasgow. Today, he is a full-time artist.
David works out of his studio in Tobermory on the Isle of Mull for much of the year. He also spends time in Kells, County Antrim, Northern Ireland. This gives him the opportunity to observe two different landscapes: the brutal elegance of the West Coast Scotland versus the gentle undulating hills and field patterns of Ulster.

David's Artistic Process
David employs unconventional techniques such as layering, pouring, throwing, and spreading paint. He scrapes back through the layers to reveal diverse colours and textures, then redistributes these across the canvas. David explains:
"The mountain is defined by its grit and grace. These are the twin qualities I sought to capture — the roughness of the climb, the sharp angles and shifting textures underfoot, but also the elegance of the contours and the sense of release that comes from standing at the top, held in a wider horizon."
