David Norris – Photography Feature
“Ibis Two-Step” Photograph on paper
David Norris has been a long time Art in Bloom Gallery artist whose work continuously evolves. From his earlier monoprints, engravings, drawings, watercolors to his most recently painted oil on canvas. David loves to experiment with multiple processes but has almost always worked from the photographs he has taken of landscapes and place, which serve as his muse.
About the Artist
Wilmington artist, David A. Norris, has a BFA degree from the East Carolina University School of Art. Long settled in the Port City, he finds the historic atmosphere of Wilmington and the natural beauty of the Cape Fear River and the coast provide limitless sources of artistic inspiration.
Most of David’s work reflects the landscapes of the places where he has lived or visited. Through his interest in art history, his work has absorbed influences such as English watercolors, 19th century engravings, Japanese woodblock prints, Dutch Baroque landscapes, and Van Gogh’s reed pen drawings.
