"I like to think of my paintings as visual poems. On the surface they are quiet whispers, but I hope they convey a depth of emotion to anyone who takes the time to stop and listen."
-- David Grossmann
David Grossmann’s evocative landscapes blur the edges between reality, memory, and imagination. Grossmann was born in Colorado but grew up in Chile, and his adventures as an artist have taken him to many parts of the world. He now lives in southern Colorado where the surrounding landscapes inspire most of his compositions.
Merging techniques from centuries ago with a contemporary aesthetic, Grossmann’s work bridges the gap between old and new, tradition and abstraction. He works on hand-made panels, which become the base for luminous layers of pigment and intricate surface textures that he meticulously develops throughout his studio paintings. It is a time-consuming, meditative process that Grossmann balances with his frequent treks outdoors to paint directly and spontaneously from nature.
