David Gainford works solely in oil paint, drawing on formal training from High Wycombe Art College, The Sir John Cass Institute, and years spent in Robert Lenkiewicz’s studio. He masterfully applies Old Master and French Impressionist techniques with a loose, expressive brushwork, occasionally incorporating the palette knife to portray landscapes, animals, portraits, and figurative scenes. His art radiates a passionate joy in the act of painting, conveying vitality and devotion reminiscent of the Old Masters.
