David Voigt

The expression of light has always been an integral element of my painting life, whether it be in a composition of geometric structural forms of a semi-abstract nature, in the floral subjects, or my atmospheric landscapes. Light and all it’s variants provide a resource for constant exploration.

As an artist inspired by nature and the landscape, having a source of light emitting from the compositions, which are all illuminated by varying degrees, enhances the colour and tonal sequences within my paintings. This in turn gives energy, drama and a sense of presence to the work and I hope, an ongoing visual journey for the viewer.
