Press Release

David Vickery makes carefully composed, exquisitely crafted paintings that arrest the eye, that draw our attention to the particular within the every day—a bit of sky and dark evergreens reflected in an oblique window, a network of leafless trees casting their shadows against white clapboards, the warm glow of a lit interior framed within the crisp geometry of a grey house—the transitory nature of light and places where the natural and man-made connect. His subjects are primarily drawn from his immediate environment, the landscape, and local villages near his studio in Cushing, Maine, and from his annual trips to Monhegan Island. The images are built up slowly in several thin layers of oil and varnish, a deliberate, contemplative process that lends a meditative quality to the finished, highly detailed paintings.

 

Vickery received his B.A. from the College of the Atlantic, Bar Harbor, ME. His work is in the Farnsworth Art Museum's collection, as well as many private and corporate collections throughout the United States. It has been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Maine, New York, and Boston, including at Courthouse Gallery, Ellsworth, ME; Sherry French Gallery, New York, NY; Beth Urdang Gallery, Boston, MA; Center for Maine Contemporary Art, Rockport, ME; and the Farnsworth Art Museum. In 1993, he was an artist-in-resident at Carina House, Monhegan Island, ME. Vickery’s work is included in the books Paintings Of New England (Carl Little/Arnold Skolnick, 1996), Art of Monhegan Island (Carl Little/Arnold Skolnick, 2004), and Art of Penobscot Bay (Carl Little/David Little, 2023). He lives and works in Cushing, ME.
