David Delamare

David Delamare is a surreal and fantasy artist living in Portland Oregan. I've been collecting his work since childhood. His fantasy art is unique in that it feels so real and so fantastic at the same time. It is unique in that his artwork lacks the for lack of a better word "nerdyness" that a lot of fantasy artwork posesses and instead it feels whimiscal, romantic, theatrical, and more like part of a fairytale than a cheesy dungeons and dragons campain. His skill as a painter and image based storyteller brings delight to both the adult artist and the child within. His brushwork is tight yet painterly, and it is actually the presence of Delamares hand that brings the painting to perfection. His understanding of light is outstanding and he constantly uses it to his advantage, especially in designing his color palette and his works are both the result of masterful lighting and exceptional color choice. His new steampunk style artworks are not to be missed, and he has a delightful and expansive collection of mermaids, fairies, and storybook charecters to be enjoyed by all who would like to retern to that childplace to wonder, imagination, and magic.
