David Weed

Art has been a therapeutic escape for me during all the hard times. Getting feelings out and having a tangible artifact helps to forget.

What is your favorite type of art to create?

I’ve been doing mostly portraits the last couple years but I love doing weird geometric paintings too. Oils and a palette knife are what I use the most.

Where do you find inspiration?

From experience, observation, and just from meditation I guess. The real question is if I didn’t paint what I paint, would someone else?

What would you do with $25,000?

I initially thought I’d put it into my studio, but instead I would put it into something that pays a high weekly dividend, that way the dividends would pay for my studio and materials going forward.
