DAVID CLEMESHA, "BEWITCHING" ARTIST


                                                
G is for Goose

As you have seen on this BLOG, I like to introduce you to known Masters as well as new ARTISTS.  I met the gentleman who is the subject of this posting at a party for my STUDENT/FRIEND, Carolyn Marsden's new book launch, "Mexico, Jupiter, Submarine".  David & I began chatting and he showed me some of his work to which I was immediately attracted. So, I hope that you will enjoy looking at the "bewitching" work of David Clemesha.

David Clemesha grew up in England and moved to the United States at age 16. David 's ART is influenced by his many years of illustrating children's literature which he writes with his Wife Andrea Zimmerman. He uses words & images to create joyful colorful CONTEMPORARY ART which also references European Medieval manuscripts & books. Some artists that "speak to" David are: Giotto, Dubuffet & Hockney.
