« My goals in art-making are exploring the nature of who I am, and my relationship to the world. »
At age nine, American painter and sculptor David Sheldon was hospital bound after a major operation and was given his first oil-painting kit- he hasn't stopped making art since. The theme of Sheldon's sculpture work revolves around the question, "Who am I, and what is my relationship to the Infinite?" Regarding his paintings, Sheldon works intuitively, and likes to constantly question his methods. Sheldon't futuristic steel sculptures and abstract expressionist oil paintings are fluid, bright, and intriguing.
