The painter David Vickery explores space: outdoor, indoor, around, above, across, beyond. He is equally expert at representing the parlor and the panorama, the intimate and the out there.
David Vickery’s painting, Monhegan Mowers, is on the cover of the Winter 2014 issue of The Gettysburg Review. An interior feature includes five other paintings: Island Line, Dormer, Wheelbarrow, Monhegan, Staircase, and January First.
David Vickery was featured in Carl Little’s article, “Painter & Place: No Getting Over Monhegan”, in the April 2013 Maine Home + Design. In the article, Carl remarks that David has “embraced a style that he has come to call ‘precise realism’: a close reading of motifs, including architectural subjects that often have a psychological edge.”
An excerpt:
Tell us something about your work.
It’s precise realism, or naturalism, of local scenes and interiors with an eye to contemporary relevance and a connection between the natural and man-made.
What’s the best part of being a full time, working artist?
Being able to do what I want, keep my own hours, pursue personal, eccentric ideas and have the resulting work appreciated.
David Vickery is an artist based in Cushing, Maine. He has been working from his studio there since 1991. His work has been exhibited at the Farnsworth Museum, Rockland, ME; College of the Atlantic, Mount Desert, ME; Sherry French Gallery, New York, NY; and the Center for Maine Contemporary Art.
Vickery is known for his precise realism and exploration of light and space. His subjects include both interiors and the landscape around him. The work explores the merger of nature and culture - an attempt to make sense of our place in the world. He looks at interior spaces and our imprint on the landscape with an eye for the imperfect, quirky, and sometimes elegant adaptations we’ve made in order to live here.
