About this artwork
According to artist, David Sheldon, when he paints a landscape, he's not attempting to transcribe some experience he has had in nature, by copying it onto canvas. Rather, he's using that experience to create a painting that is a sublime experience in its own right. The paint substance, plays an essential role in that process, rather than being a ‘means to an end’. The viscosity and substance of the paint and canvas are essential. He relies on his…
expertise with paint handling, and ability to transcribe his most essential feelings, to create the work of Art. The 'Yosemite Series' are works based on recent explorations in Yosemite. Yosemite Falls is one of many startling falls, at Yosemite, seemingly descending from the heavens. Sheldon employs the magical quality of the painting process into the depiction, as the paint literally falls and slides down the surface of the canvas.

« 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.
