David Kirkman’s work explores the human experience — capturing emotion, contrast, and freedom through expressive colour and movement. His paintings are about more than what we see; they offer a space to pause, reflect, and reconnect. In a world often marked by chaos and judgement, David’s art creates a sense of escape — a visual meditation that invites calm, contemplation, and positivity.

A passionate diver, David draws powerful parallels between being underwater and painting. Both offer a kind of surrender — to breath, to sensation, and to the unknown. The weightlessness and clarity found beneath the surface informs his work, influencing the rhythm, depth, and atmosphere within each piece.

Through bold brushstrokes, layered colour, and dynamic contrasts, David captures the feeling of navigating life’s uncertainty — embracing vulnerability and transforming it into something beautiful and uplifting. His paintings are full of energy, yet grounded in stillness, inviting the viewer to find their own meaning in the movement.
