David Atkins attended some of Britain’s finest art schools including St. Martins School of art and Winchester School of Art. The tradition of landscape painting has always been at the heart of David's drawing and paintings.
David works directly from the environment, often revisiting places many times and in ever changing weather and seasons. Over the past five years his work has been concentrated around locations in Norfolk, Surrey and Dorset. In Norfolk, he has been drawn to the dramatic skies and the seemingly endless space; the fields and marshes which reflect the light, and the changing tides. David moved to Dorset from London five years ago, and during that time, his work has been inspired not only by the land and sea but also by the poems and novels of Thomas Hardy. He constantly makes references to the light effects of sunrise, sunset and moonlight. David's most recent work has involved a journey though London. Beginning in the heart of London, through theatre land into the City, then eastwards along the Thames toward the new steel and glass additions to the capital’s skyline. The paintings have tried to capture the essence of this exciting city.
David has had many successful solo and group exhibitions all over the UK.
