About David Webster

I am a born and bred Londoner and I paint pen and wash portraits of buildings and street scenes. My paintings have been taken to America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, France, Poland, Hungary, Southern Ireland and Malta as well as here in the UK.

My drawings are very detailed. They are the result of learning how to look at and understand a building: how to develop the subject and transfer that information into line and colour. I love the individual character and shape of buildings; how they sit in their environment; their changing perspectives; how light and shadow transform them.

 

I love the contrast a black ink line gives on white paper and how a gentle watercolour wash compliments that line to bring the whole drawing and composition to colourful life.

I exhibit throughout the year at Art Society seasonal exhibitions. I give talks, instruction and workshops to Art Societies in the South east of England.

The finished works are normally sized from 50cm x 35cm down to 25cm x 15cm.

Much of my work is commissioned by people who want a permanent record of their building, or a favourite scene.

I will be very happy to provide an obligation-free quotation for your own requirements.

Prices vary with the location, complexity, and size of the work.
