DAVID MOORE
ASSOCIATED ARTIST

​"My still life oil paintings reflect my search for space and stillness. The arrangements of flowers and objects in my work are collected from my daily surroundings: some from our garden, others gifted or collected during sanctioned raids on the gardens of friends, or from within my eclectic assortment of op shop objects and contemporary handmade ceramics. My focus on still life began when my children were young and I was surrounded by the domestic. I found taking moments of quiet contemplation to arrange and paint my subjects help me to move though the noise of family life. My paintings offer endless moments of quiet and calm."
