David Reynolds – Botanical, Natural History and Wildlife Watercolour Artist
David is an experienced botanical and natural history artist. He would describe himself as a tonal painter. He enjoys painting in rich natural pigments, always looking to achieve a high level of accuracy within his work. David relies heavily on a combination of good composition, tone and light to achieve a high level of detail of his chosen subject.
His background is in commercial art, graphic design, photography and multimedia. The skills developed in these areas have given him an appreciation for colour, composition and aesthetics. David paints using watercolour and finds the medium exciting and vibrant with its beautiful rich colours and its ‘sometimes unpredictable’ nature. He describes his style as ‘Accurate Realism’ and is always looking to portray his botanical and wildlife subjects with the most accurate detail possible yet doing it in a ‘painterly’ way honouring the watercolour medium.
David recently wrote and directed a documentary on 6 of Australia’s most respected botanical artists. The documentary is called ‘Studio Sessions’ and can be purchased through his website. www.davidreynoldsart.com.au
